I was just about to say OK.  But I can't build CVS at the moment.  Can
I build MLton with MLton or do I need to install SML/NJ or something?

When I try to make from the topdir I get the following errors:

---

And some GC stats

It seems that mlton/mlton-stubs-1997.cm isn't up to date.  I tried to
to patch mlton/mlton-stubs-1997.cm by adding
        
        ssa/common-arg.sig

to line 259.  And

        ssa/common-arg.fun

to line 315.   Which seems to work (it is still building).

Ah, OK.

No, I don't need it.  But I'd like if Moscow ML and MLton had similar
extensions to make it easier to build cross compiler libraries.  But
that is not important now.  I'll compose a more structured mail later.

Yes.


Thanks for the quick feedback.
