This has already been reported to Joy Kendall and may have already been
reported through other channels, since we discovered this a few days ago.

Anyway, we are running gcc-1.35 on a Sun3 with an fpa, which is running SunOS
4.0.3.

The following program causes a segmentation fault:

main()
{
	char	*s = "foo";

	*s = 'f';
}

This one seems pretty significant.  I have a hard time the compiler managed to
compile itself, and actually runs...
