Well actually, what would have been more helpful is knowing which
interface file it was that was causing the problem.  Doubtless there's
a way of having this stuff spewed out, but shouldn't it be automatic,
for interface file errors?

... And in the other case, wouldn't the better fix be to put in a test
to see if module qualifiers are required to distinquish the entities
in the error message?

Anyway, I recompiled some things, and the problem went away, so I think
it was indeed an interface file problem.

Cheers,
Alex.
