It is odd, since I am only getting that error on one machine. I will poke
around with it a little more, any suggestions on what to check for?

As for the cvs version I get this error:

Compile SML starting
      pre codegen starting
         parseAndElaborate starting
../lib/mlton/pervasive/pervasive.sml:36.26-36.32 Error: unbound structure
Real32
         parseAndElaborate raised in 0.04 + 0.00 (0% GC)
      pre codegen raised in 0.05 + 0.00 (0% GC)
   Compile SML raised in 0.05 + 0.00 (0% GC)


gmp.h is on the machine and i have moved a copy of it to
/usr/lib/mlton/include, and this is the library that I set in the mlton
script located in mlton/bin. I also added the -lib-search /usr/lib  to the
same script. Although, I never once got an error about mlton not finding
gmp.h or -lgmp, I just thought that the error above would have something
to do with gmp.h.   Any suggestions on this?
