Folks,
I may have caused problems on updating to this version due to moving class
variables to shared pools, which requires recompiling in some cases. In
particular, ReceiverIndex may not be properly initialized, which leads
to a crashing VM. If you have this problem, please do the following:
Interpreter compileAll.
Interpreter initialize.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
