With the 971001 version, I still get the "incompatible pointer type" that was supposed to be fixed (minor problem, of course),

Strange. I have tried this new GPC on all the test programs I had received from you, and everything went through. Could you please send me a fresh program that triggers the error?

I am sorry for posting INCORRECT information to you and the list. The "incompatible pointers" problem has indeed been fixed (thanks) in the new version. However, in the midst of my confusion about the broken GPC library (and the timestamp problem which led me to believe for a while that I had downloaded an old version), I simply failed to notice that I was actually using incompatible pointers (abusing Pascal and treating it as C), so the warnings were perfectly in order for that program! The program in my original bug report compiled OK under the new beta (DJGPP). Thus, now the feature works, but the bug has been fixed. Jesper Lund
