Thomas,

Aye, I have fixed all of those.  Not sure if I've done it the "best" way 
but I have added a few dist_libkernel_a_SOURCE to include all the header 
files, .sym, .srv, and .cli files.

Now I am stuck on one that I cannot figure out:

< i386/i386/lib_dep_tr_for_defs_a-mach_i386.server.defs.o
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `i386/i386/i386asm.h', needed by 
`../ipc/ipc_entry.c'.  Stop.


Thanks,
