NSStepperCell bug (fwd)

[Nicola Pero]

James, thanks for your bug report!  It's probably something for the Gorm
maintainer (Gregory) to look at.

Generally, the best way to report bugs is the page

http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=additem&group=gnustep

I suppose we need an easy link to that page on the web site, I agree it's
difficult to find how to report bugs.

Thanks

Subject: NSStepperCell bug

Greetings!

I'm trying to install GNUstep and I ran into a problem when trying to 
run Gorm. I couldn't figure out how to report a bug, so I thought I'd 
send you an email.

Basically, Gorm kept seg faulting when trying to load the controls 
palette. After some digging I foud out that it was dying when decoding 
the NSStepperCell. I looked at -[NSStepperCell initWithCoder:] and I 
think that the type of tmp1 and tmp2 should be int and not BOOL. I think 
that this was causing stack corruption, which explained my seg fault. 
Once I changed the type, everything started working without any problem.
I'm currently running on Solaris9/intel and using gcc 3.4.0, for what 
it's worth.

-[NSStepperCell encodeWithCoder:] would probably need the same fix.

By the way, thanks for all the work you guys have done so far!
