OK, that can be made flat.

Me too, but I haven't yet tested.

Why I would include the patch is the following.

For the non-free Aldor actually nothing changes, except that then FriCAS
distributes the respective .as files. If things worked or didn't work
before, the same happens with the patch.

For the free Aldor we have seen the problem, but I haven't yet seen more
issues that would justify that FriCAS would not be better of
distributing these few .as files directly rather than modifying the
downloading bits so that these .as files are downloaded from Pippijn's
repo rather than from aldor.org (which I currently don't know whether it
actually works).

So all speaks for inclusion.
