error 127 from make

[Michael P. Gorse]

Yeah, error 127 indicates that make can't find a program that it needs to
run a command.  My guess would be that she doesn't have g++ installed
(some distributions package it separately from gcc so it is possible to
have the c compiler installed but not the c++ compiler)
