Thanks Andreas. I was able to get it all built.

I set the SRILM variable, but then had an issue with multiple definitions
for some functions in one of the standard headers. I changed my machine type
to i686-gcc4 per this thread (
http://www-speech.sri.com/pipermail/srilm-user/2009q4/000796.html) and then
had issues with a missing Tcl.h header. I installed tcl-devel but it still
didn't work and thus I got to:

`make MACHINE_TYPE=i686-gcc4 SRILM=/full/path/to/my/srilm/directory NO_TCL=X
World`

I've successfully been able to use ngram-count now. Thanks again for your
help.
