We have had similar problems. But motorola is just trying to get
the ridiculous code from AT&T to work. (See what beaurocracy has done
to K&R's masterpeice? :-( )
Hint, use the old 6000 series from convergent technologies. The
compiler on those generates absolutely terrible, but correct code.
(Constants are not even folded!) Get gcc going, then convert the gcc
binaries for the newer system V.
I have suggested that the Motorola people get gcc, but as the previous poster
said, don't hold your breath.
