OK - you are coercing a lot of values to LONGs that should be either WORDS

	I agree that the casts were unnecessary.  They are a hold over from
	using 16-bit ints and calling ROM functions with a non-prototyping
	compiler.   But since I included <functions.h> shouldn't that take

	an Manx Aztec 3.6) works fine on my A300.  But when I recompile the
