Hi,

I am trying to use Sather on an x86_64 system with Linux. It built
successfully
(well, there were some warnings about the mismatch of the int size). When
the
tests were run from Test folder using "make test-all" command, there was a
runtime
error.
___________________________________________________________________
....

   INT Test 23 (stepto!)   succeeded
   Should = 1 3 5 7 9
   Does   = 1 3 5 7 9

   INT Test 24 (stepto!)   succeeded
   Should = 0 2 4 6 8 10
   Does   = 0 2 4 6 8 10

Runtime error - Integer overflow on plus
(Use "-debug" to compile symbolic info)
Abort

____________________________________________________________________

I found out that the above tests go without a hitch on a 32 bit Linux.
Such compiler dependecies

on architecture are to be fixed.

I think Sather is a GREAT language and I'll try to contribute something that
I can so as to keep it "alive".

In order to do that at a more productive level, I have to play with it a
little more and learn the details of

the language. At this point, I can test a few things if someone from the GNU
developer/maintainer team can

provide guidance on the things to get it working more completely on 64 bit
OS. The future will be 64 bit

machines and as such, a Sather port on them is a must to have if one wants
keep the language actively used.

Thanks,

Seshu
