The current version of the Metaware High C compiler (hc) is 2.1y. During the
last months of the past year I tested two later versions of the compiler (2.1z
and 2.1A). Unfortunately, both of these contained a bug I consider "fatal"
a kernel compiled with either of the post-y versions would crash at the
first pass through tcp_input.c, when calls to the protocol control block
manipulation routines in_pcbconnect() and in_pcblookup() were made.

At the year's end the support contract for the C compiler for IBM/4.3 was
not renewed, nor were the contracts for the Pascal or FORTRAN compilers,
so we are stuck with what we have. Note that gcc 1.37 is available from
several sites on the internet, and that 1.38 has been announced and the
RT is among the supported platforms.
