Hello Steve,

why is it that the following XS code outputs -25:
[code sniped]
On my system (Windows 2000) the output is -1, as expected.
I'm also on Windows 2000 but I'm getting the same weird behaviour as Steve - wrt to each of MinGW (gcc) *and* MSVC++ 6.0 *and* MSVC++ 7.0.
(I have perls 5.8 built with each of those 3 compilers.)
I have no idea why this is happening.
Cheers, Rob
