      Can you be more specific?

      I've found a bug in Zortech 1.07 where incorrect code is generated.
It seems to be associated with the "?" operator.  Interestingly, when
the function involved are changed to "inline", the problem goes away.
I would report the problem to Zortech, but they haven't yet replied to
my registration card.
