I tried to compile metafont on 4.3BSD VAX, and ran into this problem while
making virmf:
====================
tangle mf.web virmf.ch
This is TANGLE, Version 2.8 for Berkeley UNIX
*1*17*24*37*54*67*95*120*153*158*175*186*200*214*228*250*255*269*303*323*386*460*469*490*524*538*564
! Hmm... 1 of the preceding lines failed to match. (change file l.1045)

*585*618*624*627*647*658*683*706*738*752*766*796*823*862*893*989*1020*1087*1142*1149*1183*1202*1212*1214*1216
Writing the output file.....500.....1000.....1500.....2000.....2500.....3000.....3500.....4000.....4500.....5000.....5500..
Done.
808 strings written to string pool file.
(Pardon me, but I think I spotted something wrong.)
====================
Has anybody run into this before? Any suggestions?
