Ah, I see. That's reasonable. Certainly you've done lots and lots; we
can't expect you to do everything.

Well, it's more like there are perhaps 3 passing tests; everything else
fails :-). That's one reason I didn't find your earlier message
describing this problem. It wasn't obvious to me that this massive
failure of nearly everything was due to "eval", so I didn't think to look
for messages in that thread.
What I was actually hoping was that after suggesting a fix to cpu_dep.c
yesterday to get it to at least compile, I could check the tinderbox today
and see if my suggested fix worked. I can see my fix got cpu_dep.c to
compile, but I don't know if it would also have passed any tests.
Oh, well. I'm sorry I don't have much time to dig in myself and fix
things.
