	As an addendum to Mark Overmar's comments on Dave Englund's
fixes for Forms 1.2 running under IRIX 3.2:

	With the fixes that Dave suggested plus a few others, I have
been successful in making 1.2 work under IRIX 3.2.  I will be posting
diffs and instructions shortly.

	As Mark suggested, the -float option *ought* to correct the
float-to-double conversion problem but.... it doesn't.  At least not
under IRIX 3.2.  All the offending floats in function prototypes had
to be changed by hand.
