Of course :)

I will fix this soon, please wait. Really, this is one of our code
generation problems.  But I will give no "first class priority" to this
problem, so let me (1) finish the inspect stat; (2) help you with the
(really messy indeed) linkage section problem; (3) fixing or at least
starting to fix the accept stuff.  The reason is we want a useful compiler
for soon.
Well today I'm going out to visit my customer (consulting), so don't
expect too much, perhaps at night...
