The compiler is not very dependent on newer compiler/libraries, until now, that I changed File.T.status().size to LONGINT.<BR>
<BR>
I was just able to upgrade.py from cm3-min-WIN32-NT386-5.2.6 for example. 5.1.3a failed though.<BR>
(It's still in progress, but far long.)<BR>
<BR>
m3core/libm3 can depend on current compiler, agreed.<BR>

The compiler and libraries are bound together. Currently, the old library and new libraries are incompatible with their respective compilers. Both ways.
