Are all the other parts build (tk,tcl,db,grep,etc)?

Otherwise you probably want to do something like:

[ceo ~/me/SN452-source]$ make all-snavigator

Which sould build db/PORT/* and friends before buildin
the main snavigator directory.

Afterwards, just do a make install-snavigator.

(My making a couple of assumptions like you have a 
build dir like ~/me/SN452-build and so on.)
