Thanks for the quick response, I'm building the new code now so will know
in the morning how it stands.

I'm building the whole thing with -O instead of -O2 to see if it helps
with some of the other errors I'm seeing. ( an old problem with gcc and
the SPARC processor makes me suspicious)

Later...

The sorting problems are fixes but I'm still getting many fails.

Will investigate...

Keith.
