Comment 1 Larry Troan 2003-02-18 12:23:57 EST

FROM ISSUE TRACKER REF AS2.1 gcc2.96 BUG - NEEDED FOR PEGASUS SUPPORT
The Bug in gcc2.96:
A bug in gcc2.96 causes a memory leak in the exception handling code
in Pegasus. gcc2.96 needs to be patched and libc.sl needs to be recompiled.

Someone needs to look in gcc3.2 and backport fix to AS 2.1Q2 errata.
