Update your workspaces to the correct Boehm GC version by running:

 git submodule update --recursive

Then "git submodule status --recursive" should report:

 b08a6f1ff8f7c54bcea46dc32d85ae770a7d3ebb boehm_gc (release-7_6-mercury-20180507)
 b1fe74532b24e25e1ad944df4af11d958b0ad53d boehm_gc/libatomic_ops (release-7_6-mercury-20180108)
