C; F isn't supported on Crimson, unless you have RE graphics.
As I recall, C isn't a real release, just some patches, but I
could be wrong.

| 	Compilers 3.10

Nothing to change here; you already have it.

| Here's the kicker: the compilers disk also installs some form of eoe1. 

/lib/cpp and stuff under /usr/sysgen/root.  Load the compilers eoe
stuff again (with 'set neweroverride') if you really want the newer
cpp; If you are doing ANSI C, you don't use that anyway, so it probably
doesn't matter.
