Sorry; I don't have access to PCC2.  The first error may be due
to a deficiency in the code-generation table; the second I would
guess is a problem with double register allocation (does the m68
SGS even support floating-point?  Perhaps you have to turn on an
option to get it).

As to general patches to UNIX System V user-mode code:  I have
many of these, but they're embedded in our copy of the sources
(usually with comments containing "DAG" as a cheap form of log)
and not as a special "patch package".
