Hi,
Several readers on this list reported the same problem about
floating point problems when compiled with optimize (-O).

I analysed this problem and did the following experiment:

I downloaded the GNU GNAT (GNU Ada Translater for Win95/NT, which
is based on GCC and includes a minimum GCC) and extraced the module
CC1.exe.

Then I installed CC1.exe into the directory of Cygnus/GCC and could 
compile with optimize and execute all the floating point modules without
problems.

        Regards
            Peter
