Thanks.  That seems to work.

The next issue I ran into was already discussed on the MLton list:

  http://mlton.org/pipermail/mlton/2006-May/028742.html

I also noticed that replacing just a couple of files doesn't do the
trick, so I just replaced the (entire) basis library with the latest
version.   Not sure whether it will work.  It is going to take some
time to compile - if it actually finishes on the poor (512MB) machine.
