I haven't tried building RCS version 4.2, but an older version
also gave these problems. If I remember correctly, the offending line
was in the initialization of the structure associated with times.
(Sorry, can't remember exactly what right now.)
One of the entries is supposed to be a function address, which
is cast to a long. My ``solution'' was just to change the function
reference into a NULL pointer. It solved the assembly problem, and
I haven't had any wierd things happen. If you're a bit more paranoid,
you could probably write a very simple routine that initializes the
appropriate entry with the correct function address. I haven't done
this though.
If you still have problems, I can dig up more specific
information.

No problem. Hope this helps.
