I have seen several instances of 2.5.5 being *WORSE* than 2.5.4, so
that's not a fix either.  You can always grab the latest and build it
yourself.  For now I have a "wait and see" attitute.

The new GO32 functionality, etc would not be affected by problems.  We
have built some reasonable size apps with V1.11 without problems, so I
think the problems are probably isolated.
