- I really doubt its a bug in cpp or anywhere in the compiler for that matter.
- You didn't say which compiler you were using, or if you have updated your
- binutils lately. I believe this can occur by having an older version of
- the assembler. I compiled gzip-0.8.1 yesterday with absolutely no problems.

- You can grab a new version of the binutils from tsx-11.mit.edu in the
- /pub/linux/GCC directory.
