edit.e is something that broke when we went to 6.0.
What we were using was a pre-gpre'd version that was
gpre'd with an older version of gpre. if the source
doesn't come with edit.c, try gpre'ing edit.e with
the V5.x gpre and client lib. I think that will work.

Incidently, the you >should< be able to completly ommit
the pyxis package. NT (for example) builds with the
pyxis functions stubbed out.
