I was freezing, under a very big blanket.  It's hard to 'catch the wave' in
these conditions... no grok, too cold.

gcc (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.4) 4.8.4 ...etc...etc.

The installer (errors) kept calling it g++ ...mmm, which it probably is but
I don't wanna play with these things.  I have a much damaged forehead from
key dents.

Same here.  She was probably the youngest.  They tend to be a little weaker.

I figured as much when I triggered the 1.32 download, without looking.

Cheers,
