Jason,
  
I've had that error and it was just missplaced character in my ini file.
Check to make sure that the emcmot section is similar to this.
  
; Motion control section ------------------------------------------------------
[EMCMOT]  (<-------- LOOK HERE)
  
; Platform for motion, e.g., realtime, nonrealtime
PLAT =                  realtime
; PLAT =                nonrealtime
  
; Name of motion control program
EMCMOT =              steppermod.o (<-------- LOOK
HERE)
; EMCMOT =              freqmod.o
; EMCMOT =              smdromod.o
; EMCMOT =              stgmod.o
; EMCMOT =              stg8mod.o
; EMCMOT =              emcmotsim
STEPPING_TYPE = 0
  
In my case it was a simple typing error.
