I hit the exact same issue on my machine; I tried running it with Admin
privileges and that seems to have worked around the problem.  Apparently
something PDP11GUI is doing with the MACRO11 assembler requires more
privileges... that should probably be fixed :).

Otherwise, it's a nice piece of software (and I also very much appreciate
the XXDP database that he's put together...)
