The C version 6.00a compiler produces the following internal compiler
error when the sample program below is compiled with the intrinsic
optimization (/Oi):

   file.c(7) : fatal error C1001: Internal Compiler Error
               (compiler file '@(#)regMD.c:1.110', line 3881)
               Contact Microsoft Product Support Services

With C version 6.00, the error is the same, except it is line 3837.

Using the function version of strlen() eliminates the problem.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the C compiler
versions 6.00 and 6.00a. We are researching this problem and will post
new information here as it becomes available.

Sample Code
-----------

#include <stdio.h>

void main(void)
{
   char * string;
   int j;

   j = 8 * strlen(string);
}
