The SR Programming language is no longer being maintained, so I realize my chances of finding help on this issue might be slim. However, I need the language installed for classroom purposes and can't think of how to proceed.
Here's the seemingly sole source of information on the web about the language http://www.cs.arizona.edu/sr/
The install package provides a Makefile for installation. However, running the following:
mkdir /usr/local/src/sr
cd /usr/local/src/sr
wget ftp://ftp.cs.arizona.edu/sr/sr.tar.Z
tar xzf sr.tar.Z
make
results in these errors

I figured that this might be a problem with the compiler version I was using. gcc -v
returns gcc version 4.8.4 (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04)
, and the install files seem to be made to compile on earlier versions. I tried installing an earlier version of gcc such that gcc -v
yields gcc version 3.4.6 (Debian 3.4.6-5)
, but ran into similar yet different compiler errors. Perhaps I did something wrong with the downgraded install because it seems weird that it says Debian 3.4.6-5
.
The package also provides a install.sh
file. Trying
chmod +x /usr/local/src/sr/install.sh
/usr/local/src/sr/install.sh
returns the following:

and nothing happens.
Can anyone make sense of these errors or at least give advice on how to proceed? It might seem futile because the language hasn't been maintained in a decade, but any advice would help me out tremendously.
Thank you

It gets rid of the initial pathing issues, but the compiler issues are still there.
With gcc 3.4 it gives
cmp -s multi/uni.h srmulti.h || cp multi/uni.h srmulti.h

"SR" : Old files → → year 2001 !
"SR" compiles OK with gcc version 3.2.3 or gcc version 3.4.6 ( Edit the file 'Configuration'. ( No gcc32 for Ubuntu 14.04 ).)
# make install
: Provides /usr/local/bin/ sr
PS : gcc34 is available for Ubuntu 14.04 : compat-gcc34-3.4.6-ubuntu1204-1_ amd64 .deb, or compat-gcc34_3.4.6-ubuntu15_ i386 .deb
