Bugs in RN

I am trying to get RN running on my 80286 under Xenix. During the process
of shoehorning it into small model (64kI + 64kD), I have run into a couple
of problems:
1) defining VERBOSE without TERSE causes some 'verbose undefined' error
messages in several files due to the use of 'if' and 'else' instead of
'IF' and 'ELSE'. These I have fixed.
2) attempting to undefine PUSHBACK results in pushchar() becoming undefined,
although it is still used by art.c ng.c rcstuff.c rn.c. Has anyone else
run into this problem? Can I fix it by altering term.c so that
pushchar (and its associated data arrays) are defined outside the
#ifdef PUSHBACK/#endif block, or will this break something else?
I think I'm only just over 64kI, so I would prefer to keep squeezing
rather than go to a larger model (the linker is very unhelpful about
segment overflow problems).
The code I have is RN version 4.3, patchlevel 40.
If/When I get it running, I will post the necessary changes (there are
quite a few necessary to Configure).
