+==== Strange compiler crash (ACC 1.56 beta Windows build only) ====
+<code>
+#include "zcommon.acs"
+function int f(void)
+{
+    while (0)
+        continue;
+    return 0;
+}
+function int g(void)
+{
+    while (0)
+        continue;
+    return 0;
+}
+</code>
+This code causes the compiler to enter an infinite loop. Any of the following fixes the issue:
+  * Removing one of the functions
+  * Removing ''return 0;'' in one of the functions (causes compiler error, as expected)
+  * Replacing ''continue;'' with ''break;'' in one of the functions
+But the following does not:
+  * Changing the loop condition
+  * Replacing ''int'' with ''void''
+  * Adding more code before and after continue, both inside and outside the loop
+  * Adding more functions anywhere else
+  * Replacing "while" loop with "for"
+==== Local variable names can conflict with global names ====
+<code>
+#define SOMENAME1 1
+int somename2 = 2;
+function void somename3(void) {}
+function f(int somename1) // ERROR
+{
+    int somename2; // ERROR
+    int somename3; // ERROR
+}
+</code>
+Local variables can't have the same names as any global names (function, constant, variable names). Unlike other compilers, local variable names don't shadow the global names, but trigger a compiler error.
 ==== No "fixed" type ====
