To whom it may concern,

	This letter is to ask if you have any information concerning a discrepancy
I found while preparing data for a course.  The machine I was working on was a 
Sparc II with the operating system SunOS release 4.1.3.  There are no problems for 
compiling but at execution there is a segmentation fault.  The version of the 
compiler was gcc 2.3.3.  The fault line is indicated below.  If you omit the      
incrementation operator, the problem is corrected.  If I'm correct the syntax
is not faulty, even your debugger will permit to display the result. 

main()
{ char *a= "a";
  printf("%c\n",++a[0]);
}

 ``[Audrey Hepburn] was living proof that God could still create perfection.''
