	You can build a THINK C library, load it into a THINK Pascal 3.0
project, and then build a library from the THINK Pascal project; THINK
Pascal 3.0 uses .O as its library format.

	It's a little roundabout, and you will have to avoid using things
like switch and long multiplication or division, since C generates calls to
builtin runtime routines...
