<varargs.h> for Turbo C ?

It does, Steve, have a variable-arguments header (at least in Ver. 1.5 and
later).  Your problem is that you are looking in the wrong place.  For some
reason they put it in <stdarg.h>, not the more common <vararg.h>.  (Actually,
I know the reason.  Remember that ANSI is a draft; for distribution reasons
many argued that the stuff should be in <stdarg.h> anyway.  This didn't
happen, for consistency reasons.)

If the name is that important to you, you can redefine it in the OS or via
#define.
