This time I'm not to blame. We're actually talking about the good old gcc
2.95.3. :-P
As it looks, the name-mangling.patch is not cross-compilation safe, since
it uses "#ifdef __BEOS__". This would explain both the off-by-one array
size and the use of repetition codes.

I guess I'll simply define a TARGET_BEOS macro in "i386/beos-elf.h" and
replace the occurrences of __BEOS__ respectively.
It would be nice, though, if you would look through the other patches and
identify similar problems. I suppose you know the patches best and can
judge with little effort where BeOS is meant as host and where as target
platform. This concerns only places in the compiler proper, of course;
everything compiled with the cross compiler should be safe, anyway.
CU, Ingo
