Epoch 4.2 kept crashing.  The core file sometimes suggested it was in
layout_mode_line().  Lint on xdispepoch.c mentioned that
layout_mode_element() was called with the wrong number of arguments.

Since I removed the spurious &ret argument from layout_mode_line()'s
call to layout_mode_element(), I haven't had any crashes or half drawn
mode lines.

I'm using cs.uiuc.edu:/pub/epoch-files/epoch/epoch-4.2.tar.Z compiled
with cc, running on a SPARCstation ELC under SunOS 4.1.1 and vtwm.

Is anyone still working on epoch?
