Oops, I bungled the -no-recomp fix.  This probably had something to do
with the fact that -no-recomp is perhaps the worst-named option in the
history of compilers, and the internal variable used to store the
value of -no-recomp actually stores (not -no-recomp), perhaps in an
attempt to reverse the confusion generated by the obsurely named
option.  In the end I figured I had a 50/50 chance of getting it
right...
