In fact, errors like this one were the reason why I abandoned p2c.  They
are caused by bugs in p2c and the only two ways round them is to tweak
the C code (that way lies madness) or try "equivalent" Pascal code that
follows a different path in p2c.

Look, p2c was great at its time, but the developer always meant it only
as a way to get a basis to start from when porting applications from
Pascal to C.  The fact that there was no other Linux compiler available
tempted people like me to use it for code maintained in Pascal.  When I
started work on M-Tx in the mid-1990's, p2c was already no longer being
maintained: the last official release of p2c was in 1991, with an alpha
release in 1993.
