Re: gsl-0.41 and SparcWorks C

[Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk>]

The loop (in gsl_errno.h) could be rewritten as

   while (1) { ... ; return ... }

instead. If you would like to let us know whether the compiler prefers
that, it can be changed. I always like to get rid of compiler
warnings.
