I (or actually Thomas Esser) solved the problem: The C compiler is a
beta
version, and it generates wrong code.
But, I have another problem:
I had a document that has author as
\author{Arto~V.~Viitanen\\
Tietojenkäsittelyopin laitos\\
[EMAIL PROTECTED]}
This does not work. If I change it to
\author{Arto~V.~Viitanen}
it works.
The Lamport's LaTeX book (1986 edition) says that it is ok to use \\ on
\author{}
entry (the \documentclass is amsart). Has something changed?
