You've only specified one thing here. I think the problem is that two compilations of the same source generate non-identical (but presumably functionally equivalent) executables. Probably some of the data in the executable either depends on things that change from one compilation to another (timestamps, etc) or isn't used and is left in an undefined state. I don't have a solution -- except perhaps finding another solution to the original problem that doesn't require identical executables. -- Keith Thompson (The_Other_Keith) kst@cts.com San Diego Supercomputer Center <*> MAKE MONEY FAST!!
