Pascal is a highly nonstandard language.  There is an official Pascal
standard but there are many popular implementations which have many useful
enhancements that are mutually incompatible (does this sound familiar?).
When I wrote M-Tx, I used an old MS-DOS machine with Turbo Pascal on it.
I still find that one of the easiest environments for developing new code.
When it became necessary to port M-Tx to other platforms, there was no
GNU Pascal compiler, but p2c was very convenient since it has a Turbo
Pascal input mode.  But the code is tailored to p2c with the Turbo
option, and it is not surprising that GNU Pascal finds fault with it.
It would probably a major job (but worth doing -- any takers?) to fix
the program so that GNU Pascal likes it.
