First things first: which compiler version do you have?
You may want to compile emacs with the 2.1s version of
the Metaware C compiler. To determine the version, use
the -v switch when invoking the compiler, "cc -v foo.c"
you'll get:

/lib/cpp -D__STDC__ -D__HIGHC__ /u/brunner/usr/lib/hctest.c /tmp/pp.000602
/usr/lib/hc1com /tmp/pp.000602 -efile @E -silent -on CHAR_DEFAULT_UNSIGNED -off DOUBLE_MATH_ONLY -on DOUBLE_RETURN -on LONG_ENUMS -off PCC -on PCC_MSGS -ofile /tmp/IL1000602 -vfile /tmp/var000602 -machine rtfl -define ibm032 1 -pro hc.pro -copyr -dir /usr/include
MetaWare High C Compiler R2.1s
(c) Copyright 1987-89, MetaWare Incorporated
/usr/lib/hc2com -i /tmp/IL1000602 -V /tmp/var000602 -s /u/brunner/usr/lib/hctest.c -S /tmp/S000602 -e -T /tmp/HC2000602
/bin/as -o hctest.o -V /tmp/S000602
/bin/ld -X -o /tmp/hctest /lib/crt0.o hctest.o -lc

The version number is on the line above the copyright, 
2.1s is the latest version. See my posting of a few days
ago for details.

If you can't get the 2.1s version, send me the bytecode.c file.
