Thanks to Jeff Sullivan for the quick answere
As I suspected, it is a bug. Here is the answere. You can find the
original question at the bottom.
Bye.

We agree that the behavior you noticed in the newer compiler:
x.co: x.cc
is a bug.
We will plan on making the fix in our future compilers.
We expect that the first available compilers with the fix will
be either the DTKS compiler, described at:
http://www.tru64unix.compaq.com/dtk/
Or the ADK compiler, described at:
http://www.tru64unix.compaq.com/dtk/adkindex.html
Let us know if you need more information.
Thanks for reporting it.

Now the original question:

>trying to get a dependencies file with the preprocessor that come with the
>DEC C V5.9-005 on Digital UNIX V4.0 (Rev. 1229), I got a behavior
>different from what is specified in the man pages:
>the output coming from the compilation of a program of extension .cc is

>x.co: x.cc
>
>instead of the expected ( and the one that i get with DEC C V5.6-071 on
>Digital UNIX V4.0 (Rev. 878) )
>
>x.o: x.cc
>
>That is: cpp doesn't change the "extension" in ".o", but only the last
>letter. It happens also using sources named .for, .FOR, and so on.
>Is this a known bug or I'm doing something wrong?

>Thank you in advance.
