As of May 2003, these 7.1a engines are the most up-to-date engines for VisualWorks 7.x images. Version 7.1 engines are backward-compatible with 7.0 images and are recommended.
The version 7.1a engines fix the following bugs in the 7.1 engines:
- All Platforms
- The primitives for longLongAt:put: and unsignedLongLongAt:put: are broken for large integer values.
- Linkable GUI Platforms (AOSF, Linux86, LinuxPPC, LinuxSPARC, Solaris)
- The linkable GUI platforms can not do international input.
