Well, make testj barfs. Here's the output:
rolf:[526]/var/tmp/parrot>make testj

Test returned status 2 (wstat 512, 0x200)

Stop.
So I guess JIT doesn't go...

Stopping this by <ctrl-C> didn't produce a thing[1], so I guess this too is
something else which needs work. I don't know how much help I can be here,
but I'm willing to be of any help that I can.

After some digging around I found out that the DEC OSF C compiler by default
promotes float to double, and it supports long double (one has to append an L
to the number to make it a long double). The web site that I found this on
is
http://h30097.www3.hp.com/docs/base_doc/DOCUMENTATION/V40F_HTML/AQTLTBTE/DOCU_010.HTM#floating_point_constants_sec
(just in case you wanted to know).
Hope that helps,
Later
