Whups! Dunno how I missed that...

Yup, that's it. Turns out that the first entry in the makefile was
called "default". But there was a "default.c" file in the source
directory. I renamed "default" in the makefile to "all" and it works
fine now.

Those silly folks at USR forgot to write a linux package to interface
with the Pilot PDA, instead choosing to write one for Win95. Someone
saw fit to correct this little omission, and pilot-sync is the
result. 

Thank you very very much. :)
