Ran into an odd problem with C-news when I applied the two latest
patches.  It apparently arose with the first of the two, since I
tried compiling the .orig file, and it gave the same error.
When running doit.bin, when it tries to compile string.c in
libcnews directory:

/bin/cc -O -s -I../include -c string.c
(ccom): string.c, line 136: ccom: Internal: wasted space: 2002067630
      }
      ^
*** Error code 1

Stop.
+ exit 1


The lines in question are:

   123  STATIC
   124  _initishostchar()
   125  {
   126          register        char *p;
   127          register        int c;
   128
   129          if (!setishostchar) {
   130
   131                  setishostchar = YES;
   132                  for (c = 0, p = ishostchar; c < sizeof ishostchar; c++)
   133                          *p++ = isascii(c) && isalnum(c);
   134                  ishostchar['.'] = ishostchar['-'] = YES;
   135          }
-->136  }
   137
   138  /* [next function]

Any clues as to why this might be happening and how to fix it?

	-Mike.
