Rebuilding the library seems to have fixed the problem with the floating point stack overflowing, so I suspect it was probably just a bug in GCC 1.39 which caused it initially. If there is interest, I will make binaries of libc and GCC available for FTP. Note that GCC 2.3.3 has at least one bug which I know of--the one which causes ldexp.c to not compile. -- \ / Charles Hannum, mycroft@ai.mit.edu /\ \ PGP public key available on request.
