/* Revision 1.4  1998/02/03 23:20:28  curt
/* Lots of little tweaks to fix various consistency problems discovered by
/* Solaris' CC.  Fixed a bug in fg_debug.c with how the fgPrintf() wrapper
/* passed arguments along to the real printf().  Also incorporated HUD changes
/* by Michele America.
/*
 * Revision 1.3  1998/01/27 00:47:59  curt
