Luke,
First, thanks for the help. It's working now. I wouldn't have gotten
there without your inputs.
Now, I was not able to quite understand what you meant above but,
since fst_1.5 works and fst_1.6 doesn't, I thought I'd find a copy of
mkinstalldirs in the fst_1.5 directory somewhere and get that. I was
surprised to find that it wasn't there either.
I then did a compare of the two Makefiles and it turned out that the
fst_1.6 Makefile had two extra lines in it concerning mkinstalldirs. As
an experiment I commented one out and moved the other since a comment
seemed to upset vim. Now fst_1.6 builds!
I do not understand how fst_1.5 and fst_1.6 really generate these
Makefiles but clearly there are differences.

Yes - your instructions were correct, and this is what I was doing.
My comment was more that Dave's instructions didn't tell you to cd to
vst before doing ../fixheaders. That's all.
So I now have 1.6 built (I guess...) and I'll see if I can get
jack_fst and Ardour rebuilt to take advantage of this.
Cheers,
Mark
