This question is not appropriate for the gcc@gcc.gnu.org mailing
list. It would be appropriate for gcc-h...@gcc.gnu.org. Please take
any followups to gcc-help. Thanks.
Your program is not valid C, and I don't see how it could ever have
been compiled by any C compiler. Changing it to something like
char drawstrings[DRAW_MAX][80]
would work.
