Equally unfortunate, you were using egcs-1.1.2 (which really is a blame
we should put on the Linux distributors - even Red Hat Linux 6.2, with a
release date still in the future, doesn't use gcc-2.95.2, in spite of
the fact that _that_ release is already half a year old).

In short, *if* you had been using gcc/g77-2.95.2, you could have
compiled with -fbounds-check, which would have pointed this error out to
you.
