    Hello Sheng,

    This appears to most likely be a problem with my computer: I am running Ubuntu 22.04.

    The files compile fine if I install questa in a docker container running Ubuntu 22.04, just not on my desktop. I wondered if it might be a difference in gcc, but gcc -v returns the same thing on the bad computer and on the docker container: gcc version 11.4.0 (Ubuntu 11.4.0-1ubuntu1~22.04).

    I will ask Siemens if there is anything that might cause this to go wrong.

    Can you give any insight on what's on line 40? This and the other _ncrypyt.v files from Quartus and Quartus Pro behave the same way (e.g. fiftyfivenm_atoms_ncrypt.v, cyclonev_atoms_ncrypt.v), but all of my plaintext source files work OK.

    Thanks,
    Gavin
