Hi everyone,

Many thants to those who responded to my posting about the cryptic assembler
message "branch offset too remote".  From the Unix pc mailing list (I don't
get the unix-pc groups here) I gather that other people have had this problem.

The files that generate incorrect code are apply.c, do_name.c and read.c.
The solution is to compile these without "-O" (ie: cc -I../include -c xxx.c)
and then run the makefile as distributed.

I hope this saves sombody some time...
