||      The following program gives me 2 differents results when compiled
||with sozobon C. Without optimization , I get the correct result:
||       01-09-89 06:25
||and compiled with the -O flag, I get
||       01-09-89- 06:2
||      Has someone found and fix such "features" in the optimizer?
||
||
||----------------------------- Cut Here ---------------------------------
||#include <osbind.h>
||
||main()
||{
||      char txt[10];
||
||      convtime(0x1321,0x3333,txt);
||
||      printf("%s\n",txt);
||}

|The problem is not with the optimizer, but with your program. According
|to the output produced, txt[] should accomodate for at least 15 characters.
|Since it doesn't, the fact that it works correctly in the unoptimized case
|is just sheer luck.

  However, I have tried with txt[80] and the error remains....
