When trying to compile usr.bin/f77/src/f77pass1/machine.c, I am getting
compiler errors with hc2.1y. Previously, with hc2.1s, I was able to
compile the file, but I am not convinced that the code being generated
is correct.
The code in question is the initialization of double realcon[6], and I
agree with the compiler's complaints about the integer constants being
specified. I have compiled the code with pcc and hc2.1s and got
different values in the initialized data.
What was being attempted in this code? Is there anything I can do to
fix this?
The comments about what the structure should contain appear to be in
intr.c in the same directory, but I am still unsure as to what values to
use.
