Whoops, sorry I forgot about this problem when I posted my instructions.
As other people have pointed out the Pyramid compiler has a name clash
problem between the global Display and the pointer to function Display that
is a member of struct _XtTextSink.

To fix this I renamed the struct member to DisplayX everywhere it occurs
(TextSrcP.h, Text.c and AsciiSink.c).
Martin Fong's fix (Ref: <8905051503.AA07259@expo.lcs.mit.edu>) of defining
a typedef and then using that in the struct looks a better fix, as it
requires only a minimal change to one file.

cheers
