Matt gets the cookie this time.  The original bug notice was correct
in his statements about how C should behave.  The above code segment
shows that in the current release, this is not a bug.  I am reasonable
sure that it has never been a bug but perhaps someone has a really old
version.  I would suggest that the original poster disassemble his
output and look at the code.  I am sure it will be different from
above but the important thing is that the decrement is done before the
test.
