NOooooo!!!!!!  We've been through this already, and I thought we had
it resolved (see my earlier posting).  You meant

	for (i = ntables; i; i--) <statement>
	if (i == -1) <more statements>

to avoid an infinite loop.  Note that this will work, but what Greg
suggested should also work.  If it doesn't, it is definitely a code
generation bug, as he surmised...
