Get the upgrade package for 1.6.16 from star.cs.vu.nl . It contains an esdi
driver. Unfortunately, there are some procedures (out_word and in_word I 
believe) that it uses that are not in 1.5.10 . What you need to do is to
look through the klib88.x cdiffs and find there defininitions and plug
them into your klib.x (you will need to change the !'s to |'s where used
as comment characters).
Hope this helps
