Re: gcc-3.1.1 issue

[Philippe Elbaz-Vincent <pev@darboux.math.univ-montp2.fr>]

may be you can give more details (Linux/alpha, Linux/x86, etc..) ?
On Linux/x86 (march=pentium2,athlon-mp), kernel 2.4.18, gcc-3.1.1
endian.c compiles with just the warning and apparently gives the expected
result (=1) (also tested with gcc-3.2  20020809 (prerelease)).

Ph.

btw: I think the 3.1x serie will have a short live due to the imminent
release of the 3.2 which include the new c++ abi, not bin. compatible
with previous versions, but which should be widely supported (and
'backuped') by the future Linux distro. just my 2 cent.
