[jhc] bug report: "Alias still

[David Roundy]

It turned out that after a few recompiles of jhc, this "case fell off"
problem disappears.  Presumably it was something that I messed up...
although I've no idea what that might have been.  But as you've
gathered, I've been messing with the libraries and recompiling pretty
often... and not always remembering to do a make install.
