Re: Catching up, some old some new problems. test errors?

[Dragiša Durić]

Hi Gaius,

This is good news, as I am using yyour debian 9.1.0 distro .deb, with
this potential problems:

GNU Modula-2 (GCC) version 9.1.0 (x86_64-linux-gnu)
        compiled by GNU C version 6.3.0 20170516, GMP version 6.1.2, MPFR 
version 3.1.5, MPC version 1.0.3, isl version none
warning: MPFR header version 3.1.5 differs from library version 4.0.1.
warning: MPC header version 1.0.3 differs from library version 1.1.0.
GGC heuristics: --param ggc-min-expand=30 --param ggc-min-heapsize=4096
Versions of loaded plugins:
 m2rte: Unknown version.

I will try all with version I built.

As for tests, especially RPi (where I do not have other gm2 on system)
- I will look more into that later.

Thanks,
Dragiša
