This is a first go at an APCS32 compliant UnixLib.  In fact this should
and will be corrected into "{CONFIG}=32" one day.  However, for the moment
you need to define the APCS32 variable for your assembler to an appropriate
value.

If you use 'as', you probably need -DAPCS32="no" (I'm not too sure about
this as I'm not an 'as' user).  If you use 'objasm', you need
-Predefine "APCS32 SETS \"no\"" on your command line.  I don't recommend
to set this variable to other values than "no".

For more UnixLib questions, please use the UnixLib mailing list.
