	No, I'm not actually on this mailing list.  We (ISC/Nominum)
	to the best of my knowledge have not sent off a bug report or
	are aware of whether this bug is fixed in a later version of
	the compiler.  

	We did recommend to the person who orignally reported it that
	they file a bug report against the compiler.

	Mark
