I think, then, that we need to call 1.1.2 a "brown paper bag" release,
since the perl bindings don't even compile.... and release 1.1.3 ASAP.

This is a bit absurd. Our release procedure involves running all the
regression tests over all three RA layers... yet apparently it doesn't
even try to *compile* everything!

While there's no way to perfectly detect regression bugs in releases,
the problem of detecting compile syntax errors *is* 100% solvable by
our release process. I think we need to augment the procedure in
notes/releases.txt. How embarrassing. :-(
