[comp.sys.ibm.pc.rt] hc2.1y and pp3.0 bugs requested - final call

brunner@bullhead.uucp (09/27/90)

Hello everyone,

I've just isolated a bug in the 2.1z version of the Metaware High C compiler,
and received a set of bug-exercising pascal programs for their 3.0 Professional
Pascal compiler, so I'm starting what may be the final round of compiler
back-and-fourths for both the C and Pascal compilers. I've sent in all the
2.1y reports I've received - those of you who got acks back from me know
this - what I'm solliciting here are final 2.1y and pp3.0 bugs.

What works best, especially if your problem code is part of an application
with (re-)distribution restrictions (e.g., Pike's son-of-sam editor), is
the preprocessor output - so run whatever makefile you have, catch the stdout
in a bucket, edit the line specific to the file(s) where the compiler fails
or generates bogus code - change the "-O" to a "-E" and run as a makescript.
Now all the code dependencies (includes) are present in foo.c.E

If the output is huge or consists of several files, send me a floppy or a
tape at:

	Eric Brunner
	IBM AWD
	1510 Page Mill Road, MS 35A
	Palo Alto, Calif. 94303

If the output size < sizeof(internet-mailer-reasonable), then send it via
email. If you've internet access, use "brunner@monet.berkeley.edu" - this
is the simplest address. If not, use relative bang addressing to uunet,
and I'm at "...!uunet!ibmsupt!brunner".

Thanks in advance!
