Good, hopefully this problem has now been solved :-)

?? On my machine, after running make, two things are created, a wrapper
script called PTOptimizer in the tools directory to allow PTOptimizer to
run from that directory, and the executable, PTOptimizer itself in
the .libs directory.

See above. Not sure how the wrapper script could be created without the
executable.

hmmm. Personally I would like to keep the naming consistent on all
platforms (ie pano12) , but I can see where this could lead to problems.
Any ideas from anyone??

Good point. I don't use it much myself, but a build system shouldn't be
too difficult. I will look at it later. (I have some hugin stuff to do
first :-) )
