  11. I haven't "checked them out" properly, but I glanced at them.  All but one
  12. are casts from integer to pointer (presumably because some system routine
  13. is going to cast them back to integer), which should be reasonably safe.
  14. The one cast from pointer to integer is accompanied by the cryptic comment
  15.     /* Apollo cc bug */
  16. Do you know (and remember) what that's about?
