I can't parse that. Still talking C here? In C++ that would nearly make sense,
but...

Anyway: this bug is not related to sparc64 at all, it's a generic gcc 2.95.2
problem and the ksh source in tree is broken. So this is not the way to fix
it, it will hit other ports when they migrate to the newer gcc too.
