Internal compiler error

[Maurizio Loreti <loreti at pd dot infn dot it>]

I got an "Internal compiler error", using gcc 2.95.1, when trying to
build the package "ddd 3.1.6" downloaded from ftp.ips.cs.tu-bs.de ,
directory /pub/local/softech/ddd/src , file ddd-3.1.6.tar.gz .  This
happens on a Digital Unix machine running OSF 4.0d
(alphaev56-dec-osf4.0d).

MLO@axcdf4 1 $ uname -a
OSF1 axcdf4.pd.infn.it V4.0 878 alpha alpha
MLO@axcdf4 2 $ gcc --version
2.95.1

What I did:

- gzip -dc ddd-3.1.6.tar.gz | tar -xof -
- cd ddd-3.1.6
- more README INSTALL PROBLEMS
- ./configure alphaev56-dec-osf4.0d
- make

Error I got (the file was in directory ddd-3.1.6/ddd/):
