Ah ha.  This is where my knowledge was screwed.  Last time I wrote Mac code
was for 7.1, and I don't have updated Inside Mac or whatever they use
now-a-days yet.  It's interesting how much of my old 6.x and 7.x code still
compiles with MPW though.

Figures they go and fix something we always complained about :-)
