The first problem is that my code expected the spin files to be in unicode 
16bit form (all the ones saved by PropTool are, and the ones in the Library 
directory are too). Your files are in ASCII format. I added code to detect this 
and handle it properly.

The second problem is that there is an obj in test_cache.spin that you called 
'dev' this is the same name as a block designator. Prop Tool v1.3 complains 
about this also (Block designator must be in fist column.).  If I change the 
name of that obj to be 'ddev' instead (two place) then test_cache.spin now 
compiles.

I am going to call this one fixed. Since my compiler produces the same error as 
the official Prop Tool one.
