Is the attached C prog a legal translation of this DX script code?:
macro foo( ) -> ( )
{
a = "1";
b = c;
}
Figure 1: yanked from from dx/html/pages/progu091.htm#HDRSETVARS
If so, then we have a bug in the Linux and FreeBSD DXLink macro parsers.
Give the code a try and see what you get.
Strip away the macro begin/end calls and it works.

P.S. Some of the dx/samples/dxlink progs fail with similar errors. They
worked on SGI last time I checked, but I'll reverify Tuesday. This may be
a platform specific parse bug.
