Wrong order specified on the command line in the makefile.  libPW.a (-lPW)
ought to be specified _after_ slice.o.  On the Tower (and many other Unix
machines) libraries and object files are processed in the order found.  When
libPW.a is searched there are very few undefined symbols, only main() and
exit() from crt0.o, but none from slice.o.

This should do the trick:

	cc -o slice slice.o -LPW
