                                WARNING

        This working version is believed to be stable, but
        we have not run our full regression-test suite.

Summary:

Details:

runtime:

• Fixed the code in runtime/c-libs/posix-tty/{tcgetattr,tcsetattr}.c to get the c_cc termios data copied correctly. Also moved the allocation of the string to avoid problems if it caused a GC. Thanks to Timothy Bourke for the bug report and fix.

CM:

• CM's standard shell tools (e.g., mlyacc, mllex, etc.) that are implemented in terms of Tools.registerStdShellCmdTool now tolerate (with a warning) the situation where target files exist and appear outdated, but the shell command in question fails (e.g., because the program in question has not been installed yet).
• CM now reports undefined anchors as errors and aborts execution rather than silently pressing on using bogus values.
• "[autoloading]" messages can now be suppressed using the CM.Control.verbose control (or the -Ccm.verbose=false command line option).
• Fixed bug in CM where "fwith:" specifications that affect compilation (as opposed to parsing) were ignored.

Basis:

• Fixed the types of recvVecFrom, recvVecFrom', recvVecFromNB, and recvVecFromNB' in the SOCKET signature. This error is actually in the SML Basis specification too.

Language processing tools (ml-lpt):

• The implementations of our new language processing tools (fml-ulex, ml-antlr) have been improved, but documentation is not yet up-to-date.
