Well, I've been doing an svn update before doing any other work whatsoever, and
I'm working with the trunk.

And yes I've been cleaning all of my *.o/*.obj/*.s/*.c files every time as well.
I find I have to do so manually, though. Not a big issue.

I noticed the copyright in get.e from the trunk is 2006 and 3.0 instead of 2007
and 3.1.

I can only build at home so that will be about another 9-10 hours or so from the
time of posting this message.

Juergen -- yeah, I'm working with the sourceforge stuff. Sorry! I haven't tried
the 3.1.1 release version yet.
