-      One work-a-round is to not compile with -O2 (perhaps just -O).
-      Another work-a-round is not use gcc-2.95.1.
+Other items of note:
+
+    * There is a bug in gcc-2.95 that causes calc, when compiled with -O2,
+      to fail the regression test.  The work-a-round is to compile with -O
+      or to use gcc-2.96 or later.
+
+    * There is a bug in some versions of the Dec/Compaq cc for the Alpha
+      where the following:
+
+	    #include <stdio.h>
+	    #define SVAL(a,b) (unsigned long)(0x ## a ## b ## ULL)
+	    main(){SVAL(b8a8aeb0,8168eadc);}
+
+      fails because it puts a space inside the concatenated hex.  Calc
+      has code that is affected by this bug.  This bug has been reported
+      to Compaq and may be fixed in the future.  A work-a-round is to
+      compile with cc -std0 or to use a later version of their compiler.
