Boostc: Can't Handle Keyword 'register' Properly

[onyx 0]

Bug description:

compiler struggles with keyword register it complains

error: missing semicolon, but i don't know where.

if you remove the keyword register, it compiles fine

 

Steps to reproduce:

compile the following with BoostC

 

#include <system.h>

char strlen(const char* s) 
{
 register char len = 0;
 while(s[len]) len++;
 return len;
}

char length;

void main()
{
 length = strlen("how long is it");  // 14
}

 

Expected behaviour:

the compiler should ignore the keyword register

 

Is the problem 100% reproduceable: yes
