Hi Ginafranco, The file in question is NOT included in any program. As the 'tst-' prefix indicates, it's a testcase. It's purpose is triggering a SIGSEGV scenario in the preprocessor pass of cl.exe. I'll move it to a 'tests' subdirectory with a separate COPYING file to make it clearer.
Kind Regards, bird.
