I have discovered what I believe to be some errors in the Lattice C
5.02 prototype files.

1) proto/icon.h has AllocWBObject() prototyped as being 'struct WBObject'
   and AddFreeList() is prototyped as 'long'

   HOWEVER, in the workbench/icon.h include file, they are declared as
 
   struct WBObject *AllocWBObject();
   VOID AddFreeList();

   I modified proto/icon.h and the Error 72's I had went away.

2) stdlib.h DOES NOT have a prototype for rand().  As a result,
   the linker won't pick @rand out of lcr.lib when using the
   -rr option to lc (it will pick _rand out of lc.lib, though).

Are these legit bugs or am I being naive?

All answers appreciated!
