Description

The following snippet of NQP -

my $foo := "hello world";
say($foo);

works fine when run out of the build dir like so:

./parrot compilers/nqp/nqp.pbc foo.nqp

But fails when run against an installed copy of the same parrot:

~/bird/bin/parrot ~/bird/lib/parrot/1.3.0-devel/languages/nqp/nqp.pbc foo.nqp
No applicable methods.

Cannot reproduce this. Following irc suggestions I built and installed parrot with the default configutation, then built and installed in directory on my home. Both run the nqp program without any problem. Platform is linux i386

I also can't reproduce this on Ubuntu 9.04, even when I remove the build directory.

On Mac OS X, I have no trouble when the build directory is in place, but when I remove the build directory I get an error that seems to be unrelated to the one Coke is getting but they might both be caused by the same root problem:

And annoyingly, the problem disappears when running under gdb.
