I did a git clone this weekend and a checkout of 2.5_branch.

The mesa_7i65.comp file which is used for my configuration with the 7i65 
card was not found in the 2.5_branch.

However, I found the mesa_7i65.comp file was in the current master.   
The master compiled without errors.

I wanted to use the comp file with 2.5_ branch thinking it might be more 
stable.

So I copied the mesa_7i65.comp file from the master into the 2.5_branch 
version manually and attempted a compile.

The compiler first threw an error saying there was no function defined 
in the comp file - which was correct.   So I added " function _ fp; "  
prior to the " ;; "
in the component file.   The function error went away but was replaced 
by 3 or 4 other subsequent errors - some that were not at all obvious.

It appears that the compile settings are set for much tighter error 
checking for 2.5_branch??

Is that typical?

The difference really threw me off track for a while.

Also FWIW:
I also found that since the software has been partially purged of 
emc/emc2, that it broke my existing configuration, which was unfortunate but
apparently unavoidable.

The errors created by the emc/emc2 purge did not result in messages that 
made it obvious as to what was causing the errors.  However I suspected 
the emc/emc2 purge was causing the errors.
A comparison of a sample config to my config revealed the necessary 
changes.

Thanks,
