That file is definitely in the current .tar.gz at the URL Scott put up an=

I updated.  To get past the web caching that seems to be preventing you
from seeing the new one, please try downloading it again from here:

(Sorry, but that doesn't include the patch you posted today.)

We did make a pass at creating a new encapsulated build environment based
on Fedora Core 6, but that ran into trouble as the first tool execution
dies with "FATAL: kernel too old".  (The RunToolServer is running on
something other than FC6.)  I'll probably try one based on Debian etch
(which also has gcc 4.1.1) next (mainly because that will be a bit quicke=
