Compiler's heretic behaviour

[boriel]

Well, I've just tried with optimization -O 2 and got the same result. But with optimization -O 3 it compiles and the result is OK.

At first sight, it seems the compiler is getting confused with an ASM data block not being isolated from the main execution code. So I enclosed it between SUB FASTCALL xxx and END SUB, and it worked. Also added a fake call Gentlecillo() to avoid -O3 to remove this sub.

Code:

SUB FASTCALL Gentlecillo gentlecillo: ASM ; ASM source file created by SevenuP v1.20 ; SevenuP (C) Copyright 2002-2006 by Jaime Tejedor Gomez, aka Metalbrain ... END SUB Gentlecillo() ' Fake Call

Also did the same in file sprite:

Code:

SUB FASTCALL eSprite esprite: ASM xp: defb 0 yp: defb 0 gfxdir: defw 0 [...] END SUB eSprite() ' Fake Call, never executed

Anyway, we need to investigate further to discard a new compiler bug.
