There's a file in the DOC director of Borland C++ 3.1 called win31.doc
(or something similar) and it explains all about STRICT mode.  I've used
STRICT mode and it does seem to catch a lot more errors, but it give
me a linker error if I try and compile a program with it.  I guess the
moral is to use it as a debugging tool and #undef it when you actually
build the working program.
