I found a quick solution to my problem, but I don't know if its the 
correct solution.  I had copied the CLASS property declaration as a 
starting point for BUSYTYPE, which uses the (m) gen flag.  By switching 
to the (a) gen flag, the library builds.

I'm assuming that (a) means automatic and (m) means manual, but how does 
one determine the correct gen flag, and what other code needs to be 
written when using (m)?
