Hi Tom,
good to hear from you. It was my miss-understanding of what the code was
doing, not the issue with the compiler :>

You've got a broken compiler then, because it certainly works for
everyone else. That function's been substantially unchanged since
... hmm ... version 1.1 of pqformat.c dated 25 Apr 1999. And I'm
fairly sure that I got it from some older code rather than writing
it from scratch when I made that file.

Define "never seem to see any data"...
