I believe both the mentioned bugs were corrected. CCS always responds in
a timely manner to bug reports. No matter which compiler you use you
absolutely must look at the assembly output to see what the compiler has
wrought, and you must understand what the compiler is going to do with
your code.

We use the CCS products and have no complaints. There are also some
other nice compilers out there.
