	The author did something like:

	ptr = function()

	Where the function returned an integer and not a pointer.  It's only
a warning on Lattice becomes integers and pointers are the same size anyway.
You can ignore such error's for the most part (it's the authors fault), but
don't You get into the habit.  The correct method (via an example):

	extern char *function();

	char *ptr;

		.
		.
		.

	ptr = function();


	As you can see, it's a little more hassle, but it's correct.
