DEV version slower again

General Usage

This had happen with v1.8 but v1.9DEV had recovered … until a few day ago (my latest faster 1.9DEV was about 20 days old). Now :cry:

If it is only ~20 days it should be pretty quick to bisect.

I tried to install GMT on Julia 1.9, 1.8 and 1.7. On 1.9 can load it but both 1.8 and 1.7 says:

julia> using GMT
[ Info: Precompiling GMT [5752ebe1-31b9-557e-87aa-f909b540aa54]
Base.IOError("could not spawn `gmt --version`: no such file or directory (ENOENT)", -2)

There was that libstcd++ issue that hanged automatic GMT installation during several months and till very recently.

There should be no problems when using Windows.
