The following simple schoolbook example compiles and runs
with no problems using 'pc' on 4.2bsd, but when I try it on 4.3bsd,
pc -l foo.p
gives the following result:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Berkeley Pascal PC -- Version 3.1 (9/7/85)
Tue Dec 2 13:26 1986 foo.p
1 program FOO(input,output);
3 type colour = (black,white);
4 var conv: array[colour] of array[1..5] of char;
6 begin
7 conv[black] := 'white';
8 conv[white] := 'black';
9 writeln('conv[black] is ', conv[black]);
10 writeln('conv[white] is ', conv[white]);
11 end.
E 7 - Too few subscripts (1 given, 2 required)
E 8 - Type clash: scalar is incompatible with integer
... Array index type incompatible with declared index type
... Error occurred on index number 2
... Error occurred on qualification of conv
E 10 - Too few subscripts (1 given, 2 required)
In program FOO:
w - variable conv is used but never set

Seems to be a bug here -- has anybody seen it before?
It has the unfortunate consequence that I cannot compile the WICOMO
implementation of Barry Boehms COCOMO cost estimation model anymore.
Strange that it should have passed unnoticed, since this type of
construction must be fairly common.
