I must be getting better at Linux.  Lately I find myself answering my own 
questions.  But this one is a great open source story.

I found a GUI FTP client called KBear.  (kbear.sourceforge.net)  I downloaded 
the source tarball.  ./configure worked fine but it would not make.  I sent 
an email quoting the make output to the author using the link provide on the 
project page.  This morning, less than 6 hours later, there was a reply 
directing me to put an additional "include" line in one of the source files.  
I did that and make worked.  I now have a very nice FTP client, better 
supported than anything commercial!

Ain't open source grand!
