Why not tell us exactly what command line you used to try to build your
program (and the contents of any Mmakefile you might have etc.)?

Then we could tell you what you've done wrong.

The -E flag has been around since way before 0.10.1

You can either specify -E somewhere on the command line for mmc or as
part of the EXTRA_MCFLAGS variable in your Mmakefile or local
environment.

We have stable and unstable rotds.

The former pass all our tests.

The latter may fail some tests.

The stable ROTDs should be *less* buggy than the current official
release.  The ROTDs may contain some functionality that may not appear
in the subsequent official release and which may not be fully
documented as yet.  The NEWS file should describe all the changes since
the current official release.  We take backwards compatibility 
seriously.

There is a section called "De-installation" at the end of the INSTALL
file in the top-level directory of the distribution.
