Hi all!

I wanted to install snow, but the installation failed. I then remembered that I saw messages about it on the snow user's list and found out that some changes to gambit were made to fix the problem. I then wanted to update my current gambit version (4.2.2) to the newest mercury version. He is what I did:

$ make bootstrap blablabla...

$ hg pull pulling from http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~gambit/repo/gambit/ searching for changes adding changesets adding manifests adding file changes added 21 changesets with 87 changes to 37 files (run 'hg update' to get a working copy)

$ hg update 37 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved

$ make

It then started the re ./configure gambit so I stopped it and did it manually.

$ ./configure --prefix=/opt/gambit-c --enable-single-host blablabla

There I thought that maybe I screwed up something by stopping the 1st build in the middle of the process so, I tried anew:

$ ./make clean $ ./configure --prefix=/opt/gambit-c --enable-single-host $ make

Same thing..

Is it something I forgot or wrongly did, or is this a reproductible problem?

Thanks!
