I got an internal error cg87/268 when compiling code below with DMC 
8.29n (latest stable version, AFAIK):

#include <math.h>
int main(void)
{
	float a = 1, b = 2, c = 3;
	float xxy;
	/*xxy = a + b * (a - c);*/
	xxy = (float)exp(xxy);
	a = xxy / (xxy + 1);
	return a + xxy;
}

It only happens with "dmc -o+all -c cg87_268.c".  Switching off any 
individual optimizations has no effect on the bug, but -o+none makes the 
error disappear.  Try to change the declaration of xxy into "double 
xxy;", and the cg87 doesn't appear any more, even with -o+all.

   Laurentiu

  Is the beta compiler also available as DLL version? I have the CD, and 
for SpeakFreely it was much easier to use IDDE, instead of writing huge 
makefiles manually...
