The render.c function from the manual appendix or the prtbase.h include file
have a bug that does not permit to compile correctly render.c . On of the
fields in the PD structure is a function pointer that is declared VOID in the
.h file, but that returns a value in the render.c file (in 4 or 5 different
places).  The Lattice C compiler barfs on it with "illegal void" or something
like that.  Also Lattice C (version 3.03) produces a warning for "incorrect
value returned", since the function is declared to return a BYTE (I think) and
instead it return something else.  Who is wrong, the .h file or render.c?
