>Speaking of Gnu code, here is another Manx bug:

Speaking of Manx bugs in 3.6a...  I don't have the example with
me (I can get it if need be) since I have taken a vacation from
that section of code so I can get a fresh perspective.

Anyway, I have a case statement in which the cases get jumpled up!
For example, "switch(DEF1)" will go to "case DEF2:".  I thought my
mind was playing tricks for awhile, but I generated the assembler
output, and sure enough, the jump table has 2 entries swapped out of
order.

Has anyone seen anything like this?  I have tried commenting out
the rest of the cases, but even with just 2 cases, it gets it wrong.
I really would hate having to put in a gob of IF's.
