The reason why you can't reproduce it is that you include the --quiet
option. The patch help_5_5.1 from January 25 introduced a bug by
always writing the version information to stdout, thereby breaking the
gmp and gtp interfaces unless --quiet is used. Patch later unless
someone beats me to it.
This is pretty bad. I think we should release 3.5.6 once this has been
fixed.
Thanks for the report, Anders.
