I've modified some of the file names in the patch file, but with each file comes
more hunks that don't work.  I give up with this.  This is a stable version of
the compiler that isn't building, i switched from the most recent alpha hoping
that it would build but it's not.

I don't even know what a hunk is or if the ones it can't apply are unimportant.


Thanks,
Chris Campbell
