Subject: cast loss in final.c
Date: Mon, 16 Mar 1998 20:44:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <199803170035.AAA09110@phal.cygnus.co.uk> (raw)

I have just seen the apended change with cvs.  I think it is wrong.
If the operand number cannot be represented as an integer on the host,
this can result in a negative value for c.  By removing the cast to unsigned,
such an error condition will will not be checked for, but result in
a memory access to some peudo-random location.

	* final.c (output_asm_insn): Don't cast insn_noperands to unsigned.
