Alas, testcompiler still fails (but in an ordinary "doesn't work" way, no longer in an internal-error way), so testing with -uall is still a bit broken. [Jeremy] I won't be able to fix it today, but I'll get on that asap. That's OK. I agree it's valuable to run this, so I fixed it. testcompiler passes on Windows now. But I have a gigabyte of RAM on this box to hold the stack .

I actually worked out the fix on Saturday but succumbed to hunger before the test run finished :-)

Cheers, mwh
