Hi Matt,

Quick update:  I've found two compiler bugs so far - not great.   On
hopefully better news, I've also found that update 1 has shipped.  So I
will configure that and run it against your RC2 to see if these things are
resolved.  If not I have workarounds, unsure of the wisdom of adding them.
