1 List of known bugs that will not get fixed before any new major release:
3 * The compiler does not detect if part of an expression evaluated
4 with && or || is constant. Since the expression evaluation is also
5 used for the preprocessor, this defeats the use of
7 #if defined(x) && defined(y)
9 * Initialization of local variables with compound data types is not
12 Introduced with version 2.5:
14 * Use of "goto" to jump into or out of blocks that declare local variables
15 will create programs that crash, since the stack is not corrected. The old
16 stack correction code was removed because of the restructuring of the
17 symbol table stuff and was not reintroduced because it was ugly anyway,
18 did not work with the new symbol table code, and should be unnecessary as
19 soon as local variables are allocated in one chunk on function entry.
21 * Register variables are currently unavailable. The command line switches
22 and the "register" keyword is still accepted, so this should not harm
