I've been trying to build gs252 on a DECstation 5000/120 (MIPS)
running DEC/OSF 1 (v1.0).  I'm using the unix-cc makefile as the
DEC ANSI compiler is too verbose and strict to compile the software
at all.  Anyway, the problem is that the compiler won't compile
gdevmem1.c, with the compiler itself failing with a segmentation
violation:

% cc -v -c gdevmem1.c
/usr/lib/cmplrs/cc/cfe -DLANGUAGE_C -Dunix -Dmips -Dhost_mips \
-D__LANGUAGE_C__ -D__unix__ -D__mips__ -D__host_mips__ -D_CFE \
-D__osf__ -D__DSO__ -DSYSTYPE_BSD -D_SYSTYPE_BSD -DMIPSEL _D__MIPSEL__ \
-I/usr/include2.20 -Xv -EL -Xg0 -O1 -std0 -XS/tmp/ctmst013103 \
gdevmem1.c > /tmp/ctmf013103
cfe: Fatal: gdevmem1.c: Segmentation violation

Does anyone know what might cause this, and how it might be fixed?

Thanks,

Ray.
