[MLton-devel] RedHat 7.1/7.3 problems

Yep, I tried that from two different 7.3 machines here.  It always
works for me.  Here are the configurations of all the machines
involved.

machine		eponym		4g		redhat71
-------------	-------------	--------------	--------------
redhat		7.3 2.96-110	7.3 2.96-110	7.1 2.96-79
kernel		2.4.18-10	2.4.18-3smp	2.4.2-2
gcc		2.96 20000731	2.96 20000731	2.96 20000731
ld,ar,as	2.11.93.02	2.11.93.02	2.10.91
libc.so.6	2.2.5		2.2.5		2.2.2

machine		cfs38		cfs05
-------------	-------------	--------------
redhat		7.3 2.96-110	7.1 2.96-98
kernel		2.4.18-5smp	2.4.9-31smp
gcc		2.96 20000731	2.96 20000731
ld,ar,as	2.11.93.0.2	2.11.90.0.8
libc.so.6	2.2.5		2.2.4

If it's any comfort, our machines are different.  I would say the
biggest difference looks to be the linker between redhat71 and cfs05.

Maybe we can take MLton out of the mix, since the generated C and
assembly should be the same on all machines.  Have you tried tests
with compiling simple C files on a 7.3 machine and linking/runing them
a 7.1?

Also, maybe we can make some progress by trying out executables on
each others machines.  In a separate email, I'll send you the
executables for z.sml as compiled on redhat71 by mltons built on
eponym and 4g.   You could send me an executable as compiled on cfs05
by a mlton built on cfs38.
