pcc compiler error

[Bjorn Eriksen]

The following code tests the contents of a pointer to a struct and
makes pcc generate a "compiler error" message. Is it just bad programming
style or a compiler bug?


struct xy  {
	int x;
	int y;
} a;

main()
{
	struct xy *p;

	p = &a;
	if (*p) {
		/* compiler error: zzzcode- bad type */
	}
}
