Gary,
I attempted to switch back to the new interfaces and now have a new
problem compiling a new method (Error in process listener(1): Error
reporting error. While executing: CCL::FUNCALL-WITH-ERROR-REENTRY-
DETECTION) so I'm thinking that the problem might be a version
mismatch between the image (1.0) I'm using and interfaces
downloaded. If this seems the likely source of my problems, which
versions of the test images and interfaces should I be downloading
for PPC-32 for Tiger?
Thanks,
Phil
