Bill, please read the first page of the cover paper for the library before 
trying things. The library won't compile with Coq8.4pl3. You need to get 
Coq8.3pl2 (how to get it is explained in the main README file of the 
library), patch it (how to do it is explained in the README file for the 
subdirectory Coq_patches of the library) and then compile and install it.

After that the library itself should compile with the "make" command from the 
directory Foundations/

V.
