What command are you sending to the linker? The SDK libraries must be specified
first, followed by the Zortech libraries.

The trouble probably stems from the fact that MSC functions that return a double

actually return a pointer to a double. ZTC functions that return a double
return it in the registers AX,BX,CX,DX. Thus, if you are using the function
sin(), you will have pulled in the MSC one from the SDK libraries but
ZTC expects the return value to be in AX,BX,CX,DX, which it isn't.

The reverse problem can happen too.

This is not an ideal situation, and we are working to fix it.
