Right. I know that, so I *never* recommend:-) Under either djgpp environ-
ment or Unix-like OSs for PC (e.g., BSD/386, *BSD, or Linux), compiler 
internal errors occur frequently, in particular, if radical optimization 
options (-O3 or -O4) are specified.

gcc-i2.5.8p.tar.gz seems better, but essentially the same because it's 
entirely based on Intel's original port; nonetheless I suppose the intel
version of gcc might be useful as far as the programmer is careful enough 
and keeps investigating the output codes (the program must be sufficiently 
tiny to do that, though).

I agree with you ;-)
