Hello,

If you compile the 1.1 compiler by hand, you'll have to start the "make cycle" with 1.0.5 tomorrow (or with a quite old 1.1). And turn off generation debugging information for the first cycle (-g-), because otherwise it doesn't converge for some reason (at least not under Linux).

The reason is that read(ln)/write(ln) has been made processor independent and some helpers' parameter list had to be changed to allow this. They still use the old convention when you compile with 1.0.x however (or a 1.1 compiler which doesn't define the "compilerproc" symbol).
