           gets us down to this branch?  I suppose that if we have a C
           compiler that is that smart, we're doomed to miscompile the
           runtime anyway, so we won't get here.  Still, it might be
           good to have "set -e" in the various scripts so that we can
           exit with an error here and have it be caught by the build
           tools.  -- CSR, 2002-11-24
