Has anybody succeeded in getting the MicroEmacs V30 (posted to mod.sources
last month) to run on an Atari ST?  I get warning messages like "pointer 
subtraction yields a long result" while compiling display.c, and then the
linker dies with a seek error while trying to load display.o.  This is
with the developer's kit C compiler and using the .bat files supplied
with the microemacs sources.  I see some comments in the code at the
relevant places in display.c referring to "Alcyon C hack", but I'm not
enough of a C wizard to figure out exactly what's wrong or how to fix it.
(Pointer arithmetic?  Blecchhh!)  Can anyone enlighten me?
