I don't have access to this compiler (nor an IBM-styled PC), so can someone
else figure out what's going on.  Looking at the report, the test compiles
and links, but crashes at runtime with a memory access violation.  It may
need stepping through a debugger.  I've heard that several people are
running this test with this compiler, but some of the trials pass!  This may
indicate a problem with an individual tester's setup, and not an (obvious)
problem with the test program.
