I'm running dj112 maint4 and a program that used to work under MSC (NT/WIN95)
and which I ported back to DGJPP/GRX suddenly has problems for
a reason I don't understand:

0x000004e4 _MAIN__+770
0x0002b7f5 _main+177
 
And line 606 has the following:
		    
points[i].y = window.y_size - (int) realout[i];

I can only suspect that the cast (int) could cause the problem.
All variables are int in that assignment.


Any clues? Were there problems like this in djgpp/gcc 2.6.0 ?
