Two bugs, actually. The first "bug" is that the README file asks you
to mention the version and date from the ChangeLog file in bug
reports, but there is no ChangeLog file in the tar file.
The second problem shows up when compiling with GCC, as opposed to
compiling with a "traditional" compiler. An external variable is
declared in a function other than the one in which it is referenced.
Here's a context diff:
*** ORIG/reduce.c Sat Mar 18 20:24:32 1989
--- reduce.c Sat Mar 18 20:24:46 1989
***************
*** 112,118 ****
reduce_grammar ()
{
bool reduced;
- extern int fixed_outfiles;
/* Allocate the global sets used to compute the reduced grammar */
--- 112,117 ----
***************
*** 540,545 ****
--- 539,546 ----
static void
print_notices ()
{
+ extern int fixed_outfiles;
+
if (fixed_outfiles && nuseless_productions)
fprintf(stderr, "%d rules never reduced\n", nuseless_productions);
