Daryl,

This sounds like your compilation had a problem in the
$GEMPAK/source/driver/active/gf, or xw directories.

The gn.a library will have all the entry points that the other devices have,
so a program will link even if the xw.a or gf.a is missing (or missing routines,
or needs ranlib run on it), but the program won't work right.

It could be as simple as not having a lib64/ directory for your motif or X 
libraries,
or needing to modify the $CONFIGDIR/Makeinc.linux to use a different path for 
those libraries.

My suggestion would be to run by hand:

cd $GEMLIB
rm gf.a xw.a xwp.a
cd $GEMPAK/source/driver/active
make clean
make all
make install


check for any error messages there on the compilation, including any complaints 
about ranlib
(or review your previous build log for messages).

If those succeed, you can try building the offending sfcntr_gf or other _gf by 
hand with:
cd $GEMPAK/source/programs/sf/sfcntr
make all
make programs_gf
