Does anyone have a list of known bugs in MS C 5.0?
And how many (if any) of them are fixed in 5.1?

I just got the compiler and have converted one
2200 line program to it.  I encountered bad code
generated by the loop optimizations.  The pragma
turning off loop optimizations "fixed" it, but
I'd like some idea of what to watch out for.

Also, I have heard about a possible class action
lawsuit against Microsoft for the quality of the
compiler and the level of (non)support.  Can
anyone give me any info about this?  Thanks.
