Thanks for the comments.  many of the problems you mention with 4.0 are
fixed in the first patchlevel release, which will be announced "soon"
(please dont ask, we'll let you all know when it is ready.

the build problems seem unusual.  It works OK for us.  some problems were
reported because of a .h dependency on a file that has been removed from
the distribution, but not failing to find the epoch-lisp files.  if you
could provide more info (e.g. machine type, OS etc) it would help

not having to load the epoch-lisp files has been the case since 3.2, I
believe, but perhaps in 3.2 it didnt matter.  We should mention that in the
docs/installation files. thanks.

more generally:  please send comments/criticisms to
epoch-design@cs.uiuc.edu, rather than the regular epoch list or group, as
we are trying to keep traffic about 4.0a off the regular list until it
"matures" some more.  The epoch-design list is open to anyone who wishes to
join, send email to epoch-design-request@cs.uiuc.edu.  

cheers
Simon
