[comp.sys.xerox] Inconsistent stack depths seen

uda@majestix.ida.liu.se (Ulf Dahlen) (04/28/89)

I have on numerous occasions had problems with functions containing LABELS
constructs. The compiler sometimes just refuse to compile, saying "BUG:
Inconsistent stack depths seen". This is often when I also have a BLOCK
form somewhere in the same function. I haven't been able to tell exactly
what it is that causes the compiler to complain, but if I make separate
functions of my LABELS-functions and remove the LABELS form it works all
right.

The functions work all right when interpreted. I'm using Medley.
Anyone had experience with this? And solutions/expanations?

Re the "inconsistent stack depth seen" bug report in Medley

There were fixes for a number of such bugs made in Medley 1.1; do you have
it?  If not, I'd suggest bugging RX-S or AIL.... It's been available since
late January in the US.
