	Hmm.. I've heard rumours of gcc-2.95.1 being very buggy, and not 
producing entirely correct code, but I'm not sure on that. I just downloaded 
the new versions of rsa.c and idea.c (Sept. 7), and compiled them. They 
compiled clean, no warnings.

Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-unknown-linux-gnulibc1/2.7.2.3/specs
gcc version 2.7.2.3

	I'll give these a try later tonight, eith egcs-1.1.2, and see what 
happens.
