Has anyone compiled the X11R3 Xibm code with the new compiler?
(Jeff W. aka: Skippy The WH -- what results have you had?)

I had some problems with vgaData.c and mpelData.c.
-- make output --
-- for mpelData.o --
rm -f mpelData.o
hc -c -g -L/usr/cs/lib -I. -I../BSDrt -I../../mfb -I../ppc 
    -I../../../include -I../../../.././X11 -I../common 
    -I../../../../extensions/include -DUNIXCPP -DNOSTDHDRS -DHCVERSION=21018 
    -DBSDrt -DRTIO  mpelData.c
E "mpelData.c",L226/C2:	mpelSetColor
|    Type "void(unsigned long number,unsigned short red,unsigned short green,
     unsigned short blue,VisualPtr pVisual)" is not assignment compatible with 
     type "void(*)()".
1 user error   No warnings   
*** Exit 8

Hc1.4 has no problems producing object code from these C files.

Also, note that when I check out the HCVERSION using the method suggested
in Rt.macros, the version of hc2.1 is reported as 'hc2.1r' NOT 'hc2.1s'
as stated by ACIS.  ???????

The new compiler also finds alot of "...Expression has no side effects",
and "...Result of comparison never varies" comments when compiling the 
Magic program from the Berkeley VLSI tools.  We usually jump ship and switch
to hc1.4 when we see these kinds of errors.
