I missed that paragraph, but it wasn't the problem: 	

cp `(cd ../../../../../../src/usr/ccs/bin/cmpo;genpath -locate cmpos)` cmpos ; chmod 555 cmpos
genpath: switch -locate not recognized

The genpath in the ode tools has a -locate; the genpath we use doesn't
have that switch, which is why genloc was invented.

As a little "project" we need to just prove that both genpaths will
yield the same results (this should be tried in shadow) and then we
can update our builds to no longer have a different genpath.

fyi, re:
cp `(cd ../../../../../../src/usr/ccs/bin/cmpo;genpath -locate cmpos)` cmpos ; c
hmod 555 cmpos
genpath: switch -locate not recognized

Yup -- genloc does the trick.  Thanks.
