+List of known bugs that will not get fixed before any new major release:
* The compiler does not detect if part of an expression evaluated
- with && or || is constant. Since the expression evaluation is also
- used for the preprocessor, this defeats the use of
+ with && or || is constant. For preprocessor evaluation, special
+ routines are used, so this is not true for the preprocessor.
- #if defined(x) && defined(y)
- * Initialization of local variables with compound data types is not
- possible.
+Introduced with version 2.5:
+
+ * Use of "goto" to jump into or out of blocks that declare local variables
+ will create programs that crash, since the stack is not corrected. The old
+ stack correction code was removed because of the restructuring of the
+ symbol table stuff and was not reintroduced because it was ugly anyway,
+ did not work with the new symbol table code, and should be unnecessary as
+ soon as local variables are allocated in one chunk on function entry.
