i think i solved it..

Using the latest source version 1.8.4:

For some reason "make" fails if not executed by root.. (not sure why).=20
But config.h is not created unless doing so (permissions problem).

There was still an issue with the make which required injecting
"#define _Bool signed char" into lib/llrb.h (again, don't know why).

With that patch, and running make as root, the build completed.

It seems to work in the couple of Iosevka font builds i have tried -- at=20
least npm is not complaining.

Not a cozy feeling having to kludge the header file as a person who=20
knows nothing about the sw -- just that it is a dependency for my use=20
case. i am not well versed in makefiles and all that goes into packaging=20
a substantial app such as this.

Thank you for responding so quickly.

Regards,
Steven
