I have just attempted to compile the GNU version of egrep that appeared on
comp.sources.unix.  Compiling dfa.c generates the porblem below:

    cc -O -DUSG -c dfa.c
    "dfa.c", line 1133: compiler error: usable asked about nontemp register
    *** Error code 1

I cannot see anything wrong with the above mention line and would therefore
be grateful for any indicators as to the cause and possible solutions to
this problem.

We are currently running SysV.2.1 on a Vax if that is of any interest.
