[comp.sys.amiga.tech] Another Lattice Bug

451061@UOTTAWA.BITNET (Valentin Pepelea) (08/06/89)

Uh, oh, I caught another one. Gee, I must be the unluckiest bastard in the
world. So far 3 bugs in the Exec and 8 bugs in the Lattice 5.02 C package
have hit me. And that's for an 8-page program. Gosh! Here's the latest in
the Lattice Bugs saga:

The instruction

       pflush   #0,#0,(a0)

compiles incorrectly. I get around it using dc.w directives. Basically bugs
in both the Exec and the Lattice stuffs can be found according to this
principle: "If its unique for the 68020 and higher processors, then it is
untested and probably buggy."
