BTW: You didn't mention what hardware version of Altos you are
running (ie, 8086, 80286, 68020, etc.).
FYI: I have no solution [don't buy an Altos 8-(], but I have
only seen this happen once on my Altos 586 running XENIX
3.0b when trying to compile ICON. I don't remember the
module off hand, but the compiler just goes off into never-
never land.
Which is surprising, since the Altos compiler usually gags
on what would be considered *normal* C syntax (for BSD 4.2
or ATT), or runs out of space (either compiler or
preprocessor).
