Thank you.  I applied the patch to my copy of master, but Elxir fails to
compile reliably.  Most of the times it fails with this error:

   == Compilation error on file lib/system.ex ==
   ** (exit) :epipe
   Makefile:77: recipe for target 'lib/elixir/ebin/Elixir.Kernel.beam' failed
   make: *** [lib/elixir/ebin/Elixir.Kernel.beam] Error 1

This is without any changes to your patch.  I wonder if this indicates a
lack of resources on my laptop.

Occasionally it does work and gets past the compilation of
“Elixir.Kernel.beam”.  Did you encounter this error before?

Before I can make some changes on top of your patch I need Elixir to
build (as a baseline).
