I know what's going on, which is that Melville hasn't been
updated in quite a few years, and almost surely has some
incompatibilities with current drivers. (I'm not sure how
current 1.2.114 is, but I'm sure it's much more current than
the last Melville distribution.) My guess is that Melville
is invoking a driver call of some kind using an out-of-date
style, and you need to update your lib to match the driver
you're using. More than that, I don't really know.
