Hi,
    I have persuaded the recent pcmail package to compile under Turbo-C,
and it more or less runs, but tc detects a null pointer assignment at
run time.  If I exercise any of the options, the prompts gradually
get destroyed as the character pointers get messed up.  There may be some
residual differences between MSC and TC, in particular it seems that
setjump/longjump take pointers to jmp_buf structs, rather than the
struct itself - can anyone with a MSC manual verify this.  
Anyway, it seems to go bad before any of the setjump code is reached.  Has
anyone else tried this with TC yet ?
