Andreas Eder kindly downloaded and tested the new poplog bundle and
reported that my last-minute efforts to reduce the amount of printout
produced by this script
$usepop/INSTALL/CHECK_LINUX_FACILITIES
by commenting out some 'echo' commands had broken it.

I had not realised that bash does not tolerate null actions
after 'then'! Pop11 has spoiled me.
Moral: test even the most trivial changes which are 'obviously' OK !
Anyhow the script is fixed in here now:
http://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/research/poplog/bham-linux-poplog-v15.6.tar.gz
18368071 bytes Jan 17 20:49
and can be downloaded on its own from here if you already had fetched
the tar file:

Thanks Andreas
