When compiling 4.0pl68 under BSD/386 1.0, gcc rages about
conflicting pointer types and conflicting declarations of some
standard C functions.  Seems that GNU Chess wants to use signed
chars, and declares strcpy and friends accordingly.  This
conflicts with the prototypes in the system include files.  Does
GNU Chess really need to use signed chars for strings?
