Re: [Tinycc-devel] struct initializer bug

[Mark]

Do you have a single step execution debugger with your version? It sounds 
like if you single stepped it, you might find that a function detour is 
being taken before that point, confusing the compiler...

Try writing an initalizer function that takes precedence even to main() so 
that the declarations are known as in top down programming....

I will wait to hear of your success. You will lick it in no time.
