Subj: 	why do I get this?

I checked out the Makeconf, added a line, and
I am trying to check it in.

I get:

bci -m"Checkpointing in changes." -all 

[ ./Makeconf ]
[ '' is the RCS comment leader set for ./Makeconf ]
[ '# ' is the comment leader found in the file ./Makeconf ]
[ Comment leaders MUST be an EXACT MATCH between RCS and the working 
file. ]
[ Use bcs -c'# ' to set the comment leader in RCS ]
[ or edit the file before check-in ]
bci: Aborting check-in operation.

Why?

This is in the gnude pool.

It just told you why. The RCS file has a comment leader of ''
You try to check on in with it set to '# '. If you want it to be '# ', you 
need to change it in RCS:

bcs -c"# " Makeconf

And it looks like this is one of those files that's been in the pool since
the beginning of time and has never been submitted.  The comment leader in
RCS has always been wrong, but it looks like you are the first person to try
to use it.  bcs -c"# " Makeconf will definitely clean this up.
