The new Andrew has no bugs, so there is no need for patches !-) :-)


(sigh)  Actually there bugs.  Indeed two problems are severe enough to
prevent compilation on some machine types.  These fixes will be included
in an imminent patch:

>> overhead/class/pp/class.c.  I changed the declaration of
'errorhandler' to void to eliminate a compiler warning on the SPARC. 
Unfortunately some other compilers give a fatal error for this type. 
The type needs to be omitted.

>> config/allsys.h:  ANDREW_MALLOC_ENV is now defined for all systems. 
For a few systems it should be undefined because there are symbol
conflicts.  The patch will be to modify the system.h files in
config/ps_aix11/ and config/rt_aix221/ to have
	#undef ANDREW_MALLOC_ENV
	#undef DEBUG_MALLOC_ENV
If there are other systems for which this change is necessary, please
let me know.
