Entry Keyword
The following notice refers to BTL software and is intended
for UNIX 'wizards' there rather than Berkeley.
This notice was also submitted to net.bugs.4bsd
In the diction program, hash.c, ehash.c, and nhash.c have
the variable entry declared ( char *entry[]; ). In struct, the
structured fortran utility, 1.finish.c and 1.recog.c reference
a defined constant "entry".
The C Programming Language specifically states (p180) that
entry is a reserved keyword, so I suggest that this declaration be
changed to something that will be less trouble to future compilers.
If the keyword entry is implemented, this will suddenly look like
a bad declaration. Entry is the only reserved word that has not been
implemented yet, so watch out for it.
