I am using the MicroWay compiler (also 2.02 beta) and it is indeed O.K..
I have been unable to find any actual bugs.  None at all. HOWEVER,
it is not at all ANSI compliant, though there are pieces in there.
They are promising more in November. The support from them is
top notch - the best I have gotten from any PC software supplier.
Compared to Microsoft - who gives NO SUPPORT WHATEVER ALONG WITH
THEIR COMPILER PRODUCTS (I have a written note from a Microsoft 
employee to that effect!) - they are very helpful. The documentation in
the present state sucks - would you believe that part of it is 
about, and the examples are in, Fortran?
