One thing that nobody has mentioned was the change in object format from 3.6
to 5.0.  In the manual they just state that you will have to recompile
"everything" in order to be compatible with the new 5.0 but they don't really
say why.  The reason is because they are _finally_ using standard amigados
library and object formats.

This means that you can now use a68k and blink (I've only actually tried 
a68k) with Manx.  Yay!

I think the reason they are downplaying it is because Lattice was already
using the approved formats for everything and Manx probably thinks it makes
them look bad.
