Running mspec.rb directly via ir doesn’t work either…

This is the same error with the “SIGNED” conditional compilation  
symbols.

There’s something busted in the external transform for mspec. So please  
avoid using it for the time being - rake spec - - fail and friends  
should still work in this release.

Jim - can you investigate?

Thanks,

Yeah, I’ll try running the transform and see what’s not getting pushed  
over.

Thanks for kicking me about the SIGNED symbol Michael. It hadn’t been a  
problem for a few revisions so I forgot about it.
