I believe that 

cd rcslib/src
make PLAT=linux NO_RTL=1
cd ../../emc/src
make PLAT=linux NO_RTL=1
cd ..
./sim.run

should build and run the simulation on a non-patched system.

NOTE: You probably need to get the CVS version  of EMC so that it links
librcs.so with
g++ -shared, which is a change required for RedHat 8 regardless of
whether the system has an RTAI or RTL patch or not.

If you try it and it doesn't work, send me the errors and I think it
should be simple enough to work out.
