Sounds like ADL to me.  I had a similar difficulty getting it to work on
MSDOS using MSC5.0 to compile.  The problem is in the optional third parm
to open(), which specifies the permission bits if open has to create the
file.  Under MSDOS, the default permission for a new file is "read-only",
that is, "write-protected", and the compiler can't use its temp files. The
fix is to supply the third parm on all the open() calls.
