According to an article in the April issue of MacTutor, the glue for code
resources is stored in the LightSpeed C application in CODE resource
number 11;  it can be patched (according to Mike Kahl, the author of
LsC).  You could try hacking this resource as needed in a !COPY! of your
LightSpeed C application, and then recompiling and relinking the CODE
resource.
