"gub.c", line 1: undefined symbol: j

Looks like an error message to me.
Oh, you wanted something _else_ in the program?

Fair enough, given an appropriate declaration for j,
this line gets through

	SPARCompiler C, even with "-erroff=%none"
	SPARCompiler Lint
	LCLint		(shock horror; I have reported this as a bug)
	lcc		(*published* as a C compiler!)
			(I have reported this as a bug too)
	gcc -ansi -pedantic	(I'll let you report this one, seebs)

Evidently, by your argument, I haven't _got_ any C compilers to test!

Literal-minded readers: note the smiley.
