If the F2C function that handles BACKSPACE uses `fseek' or `ftell', be 
sure to link your programs with the latest libc.a (dated 22-Feb-96 or 
later) because last-minute bugfixes to these two functions were 
introduced in that version.  If your libc.a has an earlier date, download 
the latest djdev200.zip and try again.
