[comp.sources.bugs] gnuchess2 on sco xenix, WORKS!

root@libove.UUCP (The Super User) (06/18/88)

Well, I edited around the parse() function in uxdsp.c and added some
curly braces { } around the if-then-else clauses, and lo and behold
I must have fixed some kind of obscure if-then-else precedence bug
that the SCO 2.1.4g compiler was hitting, because now the game
works great.

For anyone for whom all the stuff I've posted has been insufficient
to get gnuchess version 2 running on SCO Xenix, I will help via
private mail. If I get sufficient requests, I'll either rework the
patches I made and post a patch file, or I'll make specific instructions
how to do it.

Thanks to everyone who helped me through this deal.
