   You should update but I think they are probably unrelated.  In the case of the   
   'conflicted' filenaming, there is nothing in Mystic that does any sort of   
   'conflicted' file renaming so is coming from your OS or other software via   
   editors or during replication, etc.  To make sure my brain isn't completely   
   spacing out I searched the source code for the word 'conflict' but the only   
   mention of it is the 'File Conflicts' setting for BINKP servers.   
      
   Can you provide more specifics about which files are being renamed to   
   filename[conflicted].ext?  If you are trying to edit MPL while   
   running/compiling it, maybe the OS is doing it or the editor you are using to   
   edit the source file is doing it when it is not able to save?
