I, too, have had this problem on my Mac+. Depending on the paths specified,
the compiler or the linker bombs the system.  I have also been unable
to use TML 2.01 at all from a ramdisk.  I think this problem may also
be related to SetPaths/HFS.  I have yet to try the version 1.3 of
SetPaths that was posted to net.micro.mac, but that may fix both problems.
