This is the second person who has mentioned this problem. I've also been told
by a couple of people that it worked OK. I'll have a further look at this and
report back. Sorry for any inconvenience this is causing - I simply don't have
the standard RISCOS 2/C rel.3 environment around any more. If anyone else
solves the problem, perhaps they could post what they did. It may just need
recompilation.
