Hi Stephen, I prefer to build from source, if possible.  I had no problem
with previous release, just typing "make" in the src/ directory.  With this
release I get an error.  I think it's picking up my currently installed
mlton instead of the src/bin/mlton script.  I will try to look at it again
later today.

If you recommend installation from binary, then would the .tgz binary
installation allow me to install over my current installation in
/usr/local/?

Thanks.

Cheers,
Doug
