    It does seem to be the case that the linux version is flaky. It seems to depend
    on which machine you run on. I haven't tracked down why things fail; I suspect
    the conservative GC. The 2 solaris versions seem stable, and the solaris8
    version (& machines) are probably what we should direct students to use. The
    windows version also seems to be stable, more so than linux, although it's been
    tested much less than the solaris8 version.
