Here is a bug in the Manx 3.6a compiler. It seems that the compiler knows
about the "const" keyword but is not using it. I tried to E-Mail this
to Jim Goodnow but the mail keeps bouncing back to me. I would appreciate
if someone would pass this along to him. Here is the four line sample
followed by the two compilation outputs. By the way, the manual says that
internal error 17 means that that data type is not supported. I can't win
in this situation.
