No gsc/gsc to cp to gsc-comp; linux gsc does not run [wrong libs].

What worked: [QNX]
  cd /usr/local/Src/gambc-v4_2_3
  cp `which gsc` gsc-comp  ## gsc 4.1.0
;; added "#define  ___VERSION 402003"
;; to include/gambit.h just before the check
  make bootstrap
;; "make check" fails at this point
;; removed the #define ___VERSION from gambit.h
  make ; make check
;; AOK


Note that my initial bootstrap [for the previous gsc version]:
  ./configure on QNX
  compile on Linux; remove .o files
  tar to QNX
  cp `which echo` gsc-cmp 
  make ; make bootstrap ; make
## use the Linux .c files
## but compile on QNX.

I still have no idea what the bootstrap invariants should be.
