Jim, you have the same prototype coded in two places.  You should really
have a prototype coded in only one source file, to get the maximum
parameter-protection from the compiler.  

As a rule of thumb: If the procedure is an internal subprocedure (no
EXPORT on the P spec), code the prototype within the module.  Otherwise,
code the prototype in a /copy file and copy it in whenever you need it.
