[comp.unix.ultrix] Bug in ULTRIX

john@iastate.edu (Hascall John Paul) (10/05/90)

       The -S option appears to generate bad code for the "stop"
statement.  Example:

       % cat xyz.f
                 stop
                 end
       % f77 -o xyz xyz.f
       % xyz
       % f77 -S xyz.f
       % f77 -o xyz xyz.s
       as0: Error: xyz.s, line 6: zero length strings not allowed
             .ascii ""

    Anyone else seen this?  Is there a fix?

Many thanks,
John Hascall  /  ISU Comp Ctr  /  john@iastate.edu
