Re: tlug: gcc bug in SlackWare 3.3

[Hajime Saitou <hajime@example.com>]

I tried compiling on a system here(Debian-gcc2.7.2.1) and it compiled
fine except for a few things like a non-existant libtermcap.

This seems to suggest that there is some optimization going on. It is
a long shot but what happens if you compile with -fno-peephole.

int
percent_sorted()
{
    return((fetched_count*100) / mn_get_total(ps_global->msgmap));
}

doesn't look like it would do anything bad. ps_global is an extern
global variable so you may find out something by compiling with
-fno-common. But otherwise I'm out of my depth here.
