Re: compiling smlnj

(Whoops, didn't send this to the list...)

This is a problem with a library in the 110.68 distribution.  Matthias
Blume was able to work around this by rebuilding everything.  From an
email he CC'ed me:

 - download and untar all the source tarballs
 - then (after doing config/install.sh once) go to base/system
 - then run ./fixpt
 - then get rid of all the sml*.{bin,boot}.* directories except the
"last" one (in my case sml1.{bin,boot}.x86-unix)
 - then rename these "last" directories back to sml.{bin,boot}.x86-unix
 - then run ./makeml
 - then run rm -r ../../lib/* ../../bin/.heap/*
 - then run ./installml
 - then cd back to ../..
 - then run (again) config/install.sh

I'll make sure this is fixed in the 110.69 distribution.  Hope this helps.

Thanks,
-Jon
