On another note, ISC is supposed to be shipping the LPI ANSI C compiler with
the ISC 2.02 development system (it is included in the original price) affectiveJan 1.  I wonder if they are indeed shipping the LPI compiler along with the
standard AT&T/ISC compiler?  Also, I wonder if both compilers can be installed
and run side-by-side?
