I'm not going to mess about with this, since it seems to be "magic" and doesn't cause any ill effects that I have seen. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.6 [en-gb]C-CCK-MCD NetscapeOnline.co.uk (Win98; I) Description of problem: Hello there, I have just tried to compile mtools-3.9.8-5 from Redhat 8.0 Here are some of the messages the compiler produces cc: Info: mformat.c, line 976: In this statement, an array is being accessed outside the bounds specified for the array type. (subscrbounds) The code in question seems to be set_word(boot->jump + 510, 0xaa55); It's a mystery to me what's going on here. Maybe you can make more progress with this than I can. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. compile with any C compiler which checks array indices, such as Compaq C. 2. 3.
