The display command does not return correct values for the
user-defined FORTRAN real functions in Microsoft CodeView.

The display command calls integer functions and returns correct
results.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Version 2.20. We are
researching this problem and will post new information as it becomes
available.

The display command is discussed in Chapter 6 of the "Microsoft
CodeView and Utilities" manual. The valid FORTRAN expressions for
CodeView are discussed in the Chapter 4 of the same manual.
