I suspect it's looking for something that's not there, but I've never
really tried to track it down.

It's RTRMT (i.e. read the the readme time). To quote:

Wait a minute. The runtime and the tool kit are separate distributions.
Way back when I installed this stuff, I downloaded the 2 big zip files and
unzipped both to the same directory tree and installed everything in one
shot. I suspect you are trying to install the toolkit without first
installing the run time. I would make sense to this would only allow the
documentation to install because the rest of the toolkit requires a
working runtime. I'd suggest checking to see if the CD has a separate
install for the runtime.
