    Hello,
    I have managed to get BRAT compiled under ROOT 2.24/04 on the pii's.  I
    had a nasty surprise though.  The new version of rootcint demands that
    there be one and only one file that has the string LinkDef in it and
    demands that this file be the last one in the command line.  I dug
    around in the rootcint file and found this out.  Appears to be a new
    "feature".  As you well know, we have two files, one named
    LinkDefBrat%prog%INC.h and the other the "real" linkdef file namely
    Br%prog%_LinkDef.h  In order to get it to generate the dictionary, I
    changed the INC filenames to LinkBrat%prog%INC.h and changed the
    corresponding makefiles.
    
    I have not committed these changes yet.  I wanted to check if everyone
    thinks that is 1.) the change to make or 2.) if we should do something
    else or 3.) if we should bug the root guys.  I did 1).  I eliminated 3)
    because I think they are just enforcing what I read in some earlier
    documentation.  So the question is if someone has an idea for 2.)
    
    I also plan, hopefully this afternoon (monday latest) to make that
    version of BRAT the pro version and point ROOTSYS to the 2.24.04.  Are
    we in agreement on that?
    
    Kris
