Which advice did you follow? Did you modify the source, or did you use gcc -ansi? I do remember getting some warnings from gcc back when I would build and run this version (like the "comparison is always true" warning). > I think you had to pay for the manual for this version.

I think gcc should be made open source so people could fix its bugs, and improve it. </joke> Anyways, if you haven't already, I would check LJ Dickey's archive at ftp://watserv1.uwaterloo.ca/languages/j/. But I can't reach it right now, so can't look for manuals. If it stays down for too long, I would email him (and if I had the interest and time, I would set up a mirror of the archive with mutual links back and forth between my mirror and his archive).
