[OK, fine!  I'll give up and ask for help on this one, too!]

I've written several XFCNs with MPW 3.0 that work fine.  Today,
however, I tried to recompile the same (exactly the same) code with
MPW 3.1.  The compile worked fine.  The link produced the following
error:
### Link: Error: Data Initialization code is not being called. (Error 57)

I've never seen this before.  The XFCN (actually, the three XFCNs
which all produce this error) is a simple beast that mucks about with
a couple of resources then exits.  No windows/dialogs/menus/or
anything.

Has anybody else seen this before?  Is it documented anywhere?  Any
suggestions for a fix (the code is a little lengthy to post, but I
will if it will help)?

Any help will, as always, be appreciated.
