I posted the solution for this in comp.mail.mush about 3 weeks ago.
There's an #endif with an unterminated comment in it, and if you place
the #define NO_COMMAS where it's documented, the C preprocessor on some
machines will swallow the define as part of the comment and the NO_COMMAS
code won't be enabled.

Something like this:

	#endif /* Sun_4

	#define	NO_COMMAS

	/* blah blah blah */

Some cpps will eat from Sun_4 to the end of the blahs as a single comment.

Add the */ on the endif line, and all will be well.
