Does anyone have references to literature about, or better have experience in
"reverse compilation" or "decompilation" ? I've heard that there were attempts
to construct programs in high-level languages from assembler programs, but 
I can't find any books or articles about it.

Please send your mail to FELDBUSCH@IRA.UKA.DE. I'll sumarize your mails and 
put it into the news.
                                      Thanks a lot, Fridtjof Feldbusch
