Sorry, yes, it should be .../$GRADE/$ARCH not .../$ARCH/$GRADE.
The directory that you identify above is the correct one.

To see the error message, do `cat fft.err'.

If the error message says something about not being able to open
the file `complex_numbers.int', then probably you omitted the step
of copying the *.int* files for the complex_numbers library into the
`ints' directory:

 	cd extras/complex_numbers
	...
 	cp *.int* *.opt /usr/local/lib/mercury-0.8.1/lib/mercury/ints
