FIXED! :-D

After spinning up an Xubuntu VM, building SyncTerm and having everything work perfectly the first time, I knew it must be something specific to my main system's environment. It turned out to be a combination of two things.

First, I didn't haven't libsdl2-dev installed even though I could've swore I did. I mean, I checked multiple times to make sure I had all the libs installed but I must've just not looked close enough. I had quite a few SDL libs installed already so I guess I saw those and didn't notice -dev was missing.

Second, 'make clean' wasn't cleaning everything up. Even after noticing my sdl-dev mistake and installing that, I couldn't get a fully working build (without the C64 issue) until I completely rm'd the whole dir and did a fresh unzip of the src again.

Anyways, I'm ecstatic now that I can finally get on some C64 BBS's!

Thanks paulie420 and Bucko for the responses!

Cheers,
Foobrew
