Re: [Help-smalltalk] problems with nil balance in gst tutorial

Here is some additional information which might be relevant or useful
in some other way. After sending this message, I went back to the gst
source directory and ran "make check". There were a couple of failures,
and I've pasted the contents of any "*diff" files into this message.


Kind Regards,
