No problem :-) As promised I'll download the latest CVS files today
and send you the modified versions. In the mean time I would really
appreciate if someone could run the test in dyn_bs_modifications on
any of these compilers: SGI MIPSpro C++, Compaq Tru64 Unix, Greenhills
C++, Borland, Metrowerks CodeWarrior, HP aCC, IBM Visual Age.

Thank you in advance for any help :-)

Genny.
