Perhaps it's the pedantic side of me :-) BTW: exactly this is the
reason why I normally use PureC (it's faster by a factor of 5 and still
creates faster executables).

I don't think that there's an 'ANSI' namespace for 'typedefs'. That's why I
think that Atari's original names (like 'DTA' should be used).
