Yes, I am glad someone else was seeing this problem.  I have been trying
(unsuccesfully) to let every 'module' in a project file have
it's own pre-compiled header (using #prama hdrfile "myfile.sym" and
#pragma hdrstop) I have had zero luck however.  Although pre-compiled
headers are great! they become much less usefull when used as part of a 
large multi file project.  Does anyone know a workaround?
