Hi, all.

I'm trying to run one of the included sample simulations, NeiTest, in  
FLASH3.2.  When I run "./setup NeiTest -auto", the most of the build  
goes fine but at the end I get the following error message:
**********

Computing default values for options not specified on command line
generating Makefile

A setup internal error has occured, if possible please email the following
debugging info to flash-bugs at flash.uchicago.edu
Arguments: ['/home/etodd/FLASH3.2-prerelease/bin/setup.py', 'NeiTest',  
'-auto']
Python Version: 2.4.3
Platform Details: linux2
Traceback (most recent call last):

in makeBinary
     os.symlink(makefilename,"Makefile.h")
OSError: [Errno 17] File exists


**********
I've run this simulation before without problem and I can setup other  
sample simulations without any trouble so I'm not sure why now the  
NeiTest is being finicky.  I know it says to notify the flash-bugs  
mailing list but there doesn't seem to be much action on that board.

Any suggestions/help is appreciated!  Thanks,
Elizabeth :)
