The following program generates the errors:
/tmp/K.C: In function `double hypot (double, double)':
/tmp/K.C:21: warning: float or double assigned to integer data type
/tmp/K.C:21: warning: float or double assigned to integer data type
However, these conversions should not have been selected at all, and
cfront-3.0.1 correctly calls the double sqrt (double x) routine. The
problem comes to light on a sun-3 when you make libg++, because the
math-68881.h header contains equivalent code, but it would appear that
all recent g++ compilers actually have the bug. I compiled this
particular example on a sun-4 with gcc-2.3.3. Any ideas anyone...?

double hypot ( double x, double y)
{
double temp= x*x + y*y;
temp = sqrt(temp);
return temp;
}
