****************
When compiled without optimalization, the program behaves correctly, it is
it print lines upto "B f=4, l=12". However, when compiled with -O2,
it finishes with " A f=1, l=3", when the inner while cycle condition
is still satisfied ...
Maybe the two while-cycles are somehow mixed up?

int main()
{
int i;
int first= 0;
int last= 0;
while (last<3) {
last = first;
while(first<=last) {
first++;
for (i=0;i<3;i++){
last++;
printf("C f=%d, l=%d\n",first,last);
}
printf("B f=%d, l=%d\n",first,last);
if (last>10) return 0;
}
printf(" A f=%d, l=%d\n",first,last);
}
return 0;
}
>Fix:
Compile without optimization or with version 2.95 ... ;-)
