Okay, I have a question.  While compiling a program recently posted on
the net, with GNU CC, I got:

gnucc: Program cc1 got fatal signal 6.

I looked this up in the SDS manual, and it says that signal 6 is SIGIOT,
and has the ever helpful description:

SIGIOT	06	IOT instruction

(Thanks guys ;-)  Anyway, what is an IOT instruction and why would I be
getting one during a compile.

My system is MicroPort V386r3.0e.

	Any help greatly appreciated

	brian
