I am trying to install a program written in C (ctex) in our 3b2/400. It won't compile one of the files (error: switch table overflow). Other than patching the program, is there a way of fixing this problem? We are running Sys V rel 3.0, with version 4.0 of the C compiler.

Version 4.1 of the C compiler should fix this problem. It does dynamic memory allocation for its internal tables. Previous releases had staticaly allocated tables. The 4.1 C compiler was released in April, it came out with UNIX System V Release 3.1. , but the binaries are sold separatly(it is included with the source code distribution). The 4.1 C compiler also supports internationalization and new procedutes for handling timezones/daylight savings time. Peyton Yanchurak Bellcore pyuxe!pwy
