>Description:
gcc (actually cc1) generates a bad assembler instruction.  This 
was seen in compiling src/usr.bin/ftp/util.c.  This changed 
somewhere in the last month.  I have record of successfully compiling
util.c on July 20.  I don't know the date of cc1 at that time,
most likely a June install.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install a -current version of cc1.

% cd /usr/src/usr.bin/ftp
% make
cc -O  -Werror -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes  -c /usr/src/usr.bin/ftp/util.c
/var/tmp/cc19351a.s: Assembler messages:
/var/tmp/cc19351a.s:1287: Fatal error:Wrong number of operands
*** Error code 1

Stop.

Doing a "cc  -O -S util.c" and looking at line 1287 shows the line
to be:

        cmpl 0d0.^@^@\202\370\200h\276\304%\327\300^\_\300@_\300\277\274_e+00,f\

>Fix:
I have no fix.  But it must be fixed for 1.3.
