A couple of points. First, upgrade to v2.20.01 of the compiler. Second, the C17
compiler will most likely not compile something like Dhrystone without source
code modifications being made. For example, because the compiler allows data in
program memory, the type of a string constant is not compatible with "const char
*" as it is in strict ANSI C. The suite code will need to be modified to account
for differences such as this.
