PCOMM - Missing "pcomm.param" ????

I tried to make pcomm last night, and everything
seemed to go OK except for a few warnings:

expand.c, line 134 warning: illegal pointer combination, op =
expand.c, line 135 warning: illegal pointer combination, op =
expand.c, line 136 warning: illegal pointer combination, op =
nshell.c, line 50 warning: illegal pointer combination, op =
nshell.c, line 51 warning: illegal pointer combination, op =
script.c, line 106 warning: illegal pointer combination, op =
script.c, line 107 warning: illegal pointer combination, op =
x_extrnl.c, line 85 warning: illegal pointer combination, op =
x_extrnl.c, line 86 warning: illegal pointer combination, op =
 
I didn't have time to investigate these, but it didn't seem
worth the trouble at the time.

However, the problem that brought things to a halt was, when 
starting pcomm, it says "can't find pcomm.param" or something
like that. The Doc says that pcomm.param is a necessary support
file, but that's all I could find out about it.
I created an empty pcomm.param, and it says "missing token at
beginning of pcomm.param". I also tried putting some values in
there, with the same result.

What goes in this file? Is there supposed to be a control character
at the beginning? Why was this file not in the code that was posted?
Please help - thanx.
