A class has an external function which specifies a cast of the return type (i.e., `external "C :EIF_INTEGER"'). After initial compilation where the system is frozen, system execution works but produces the wrong result. Then some white space is added inside the Language_name portion of the external, leaving its semantics unchanged and the system is melted. System execution then ends with a segmentation fault. Discovered in Release 3.3.7.
