[MLton] MLton from CVS failure

I tried to make MLton from the CVS and failed.  The first failure was because
hevea isn't on my machine (a Red hat 7.1 machine).  I looked and it isn't  on
a  Red  Hat 9.0 machine either, so it isn't standard.  I tweaked the Makefile
in mlton/doc/user-guide to bother with that.  The result was  MLton  compiler
errors.  This is using MLton 20030716 as my installed MLton.

I then tried to do
    make bootstrap-nj
with  SML/NJ  v110.42  as my SML/NJ.  This also failed.  The problems seem to
revolve around lib/mlton-stubs-smlnj/int-inf.sml, which  is  missing  divMod,
quotRem and doesn't match a signature.

What am I doing wrong, and what do I have to do to actually build MLton?
