OK. I tracked down our problem and it was a very very difficult one to
find.
Having the line "DONOR" in the Home.tmpl is insufficient. It must be (at
least) "DONOR " i.e. The line must start with the word "DONOR" followed by
a space and then a newline.
Here's the scoop (and let's file this one away so we don't need to revisit
it):
To insert a random entry from the donors/list file into the Home.tmpl
file as it is built into the Home.html page the following conditions must
be met:
1. A line beginning with DONOR must appear in the Home.tmpl file at the
point where the donor banner page is to be inserted.
2. The word "DONOR" must be followed by a space and then a newline
character; the newline character alone is insufficient for awk to be able
to parse out the first token of the line. Any additional
portions of the line after "DONOR " should be ignored are are irrelevant.
