There is a fix.  I've sent it to Walter in the form of "replace this file  
with the attached version".  I tested the changes by replacing the object  
file in the snn.lib library.

Walter has since given me github access to the DMC runtime source, and I  
have not been able to successfully build the runtime due to dependence on  
obscure assembler tools that Walter has not offered, nor can I download  
them.  I'm hesitant to submit a pull request for something I can't  
successfully build or test from scratch, but I may just submit the  
original changes as a pull-request anyways to get the ball rolling.
