Summary: unaccepted name for variable

Initial Comment:
Windows XP Professional
gcc 3.3.1 (mingw special 20030804-1)
ld 2.13.90 20030111
mingw 3.1.0-1
MSys 1.0.10

// obs: endereço is the portuguese word for address

// i have this struct:

typedef struct
{
   U_CHAR high;   // U_CHAR  is defined as unsigned char
   U_CHAR medium;
   U_CHAR low;
} ENDERECO;

// and this declaration (global var)

ENDERECO end;

// and if i have something like this in any function

...
end.high = 5;
...
// it compiles great but when i run the program
// it generates a SIGSEV segmentation fault

// but if i change the name to 'end1' or else it starts
working greatly
// i tried to reproduce the bug with only what i've
showed up to you, but i can't
// i'm including allegro.h, stdio.h, and malloc.h

// sorry if this turns out to be my problem, but i
can't see how, anyway if it wasn't going to work there
should be some compile error, shouldn't?
// if you wan't my sources and my makefile, they're
still pretty small i can send it, or else.
