Ah, now I see where you're coming from...

That's what I'd prefer, too. What I'd like is this:
When I build, everything com es from "src". That's something I can
understand.
How it got there, I usually don't care. That's VMMaker's job.
What do others think?

This doesn't seem to help, I (still) get:

oops, of course, I forgot to send the prototypes... (that was actually
about a third of the whole patch... ;-)

Lex, it's really great that you integrated all these collected patches.
As I said, I'm all for putting it up on SourceForge - what do others
think?
