> yes. you are right, it doesnt work for 5c.

Somewhere the 8c fixes for the switch selector were merged together
with other changes and no one has been able to extricate them so they
could be applied to 5c (et al.).  I believe that forsyth is looking
into this, but it would be great to have this fixed soon and Charles
no doubt has his own priorities.

But only src/cmd/gc/subr.c and src/cmd/gc/reflect.c suffer from this.
I have an (int) cast in the relevant switch clauses and it's been fine
for a long time.
