Please respond directly to Hans (if still troubles then you may
mail to me).

There is a bug in all versions of 'hcc' that can occur when register
variables are declared in nested blocks.  Because of it, 'jas' cannot
be re-compiled with the 1.2 release with the optimizer (-O) turned on.

In the file "fun.c", in the function "block()", change these 2 lines:

		if (blktab->b_regs > maxregs)
			maxregs = blktab->b_regs;

to this 1 line:

		maxregs |= blktab->b_regs;

P.S. I am working on a version of 'adb' for sozobon.  Mail me if you are
hot to try the beta and are familiar with 'adb'.  (Especially if you
like 'adb' more than 'sdb')

P.P.S. How do I get arkenoids to run under TOS 1.4?  The wife needs it badly.
