+Tim Gilbert adds one note that will be helpful to future Think C 5.0

+compile the remaining files, think for a moment, and then give you a
+warning "internal error(ZREF)--please remove objects."  Don't listen
+to it.  It is lying.  What you should do instead is "Check Link..."
+and _then_ hit Run.  Why?  Ask Symantec.
