start using stack

[Alex Tweedly]

It's all too easy to have a file be corrupted when ftp-ing it by 
inadvertently using the wrong mode, so I'd start by checking that the 
stack was copied in binary mode, while the .lc (or whatever) file was 
copied as text mode.

If that doesn't help, then I'd be happy to try the same files on my 
on-rev server; email me the .lc and the stack file you are having 
trouble with (i.e. the small test ones - not your real stack :-) and 
I'll try them out   -- alex at tweedly.net
