At the moment I am (trying to implement) implementing GCC (version 1.16, ahem; version 1.33 'very soon now') on an Apollo workstation to generate code for a processor people at our university are designing. The 'trying to implement' seems to be going well (gcc compiles, this means), but I do get fatal signals when running the compiler (on a program which just adds the numbers between 1 and 100). So, my question is: what do those fatal signals mean? Obviously that something is wrong. But exactly what information can one derive from the signal number? Thanks in advance for any information regarding this topic, ---Tiggr
