Not quite. Meridian (at least under Ultrix) is guilty of spitting
out tons (I don't even know how many) of intermediate files, each
with their own predefined extensions. If you happen to name a file
with one of those (undocumented) extensions, it will fail. Try
using the extension ".ils", for example. It also does a very
simplistic job of generating object file names in its ".aux"
directory; you have to be somewhat careful with units whose names
start with the letter 'b'.
