Applications can be modified to fix this type of thing, and I'm sure in
these cases we can add #ifdef __MINT__ / #endif to the code to fix this
up.

I'm trying to avoid having to patch applications and fix MiNTlib where
possible. That's my goal anyway.

So don't worry Frank, I'm not saying you HAVE to include it in MiNTlib,
it's your choice. Just sending out my patches for people to use, if they
so choose.
