So I downloaded the tarballs of both the most recent and second-most recent versions.

I did the configure && make && sudo make install dance and fired up erl.

And then, this:
$ erl
Erlang (BEAM) emulator version 5.5.4 [source] [async-threads:0] [kernel-poll:false]
Eshell V5.5.4 (abort with ^G)
1> 1+1
1> 1
1>


According to everything I read, it should print "2" and then "1" after my two commands.

WTF am I doing wrong here? I've RTFM'd and STFW'd to no avail. Given my very vanilla setup and the fact I didn't pass any options to configure or make, I surely can't be the only one encountering this.
