Greetings, and thanks for the update! I believe this change has been
reverted already. Please let me know if I've overlooked something.
Just a heads up -- acl2 has outgrown the default 1G maxpage heap, but
the machines we support cannot handle a doubling. My plan is to release
2.6.8 as is, and to then quickly do a 2.6.9, which will have the
following backported from cvs:
1) 64bit wide fixnums
2) immediate fixnums
3) two word cons
4) dynamic maxpages and better near out of memory support.
Thoughts most welcome.
Take care,
