Just for the exercise I tried compiling the microemacs 3.8 that recently
came in on another newsgroup.  This program provides its own improved (?)
version of itoa and ltoa.  Unfortunately the Turbo C math library produces
a multiple definition error -- I guess they were put in the same module as
some other functions.  Of course this does speed up linking, but at what
cost?

Perhaps Borland should have delayed the introduction of Turbo C a while 
longer?
