I found a bug in the public java compiler I announced yesterday.
That bug has since been fixed. People who tried to use the compiler
in the last 24 hours weren't able to retrieve their compiled .class
files.
In short I had moved the temporary directory where files were
compiled onto a separate partition. However I neglected to change
the links to the class files. Thus files were compiled but the links
to the compiled files were invalid. This has since been fixed, and
serves as yet another cautionary tale about the need for testing
EVERYTHING when you make even the littlest changes to the code.
