preface: i do not /know/ C but have been able to wheedle my way thru some 
problems in the past and even create a few very minor programs... i can only 
point out what i see and ask questions or just wait for a solution...


in the sqafix sources retrieved from cvs.sourceforge.net, i get the following 
errors...

=====
In file included from dw-def.h:34,
                 from dw-lst.h:35,
                 from sqafix.h:63,
                 from sqafix.c:62:
dw-saa.h:297: parse error before string constant
dw-saa.h:297: stray '\' in program
dw-saa.h:298: undefined or invalid # directive
=====

here're the lines in that section with line numbers added..

293 #ifdef NDEBUG
294 #  define ASSERT(p) ((void)0)
295 #else
296 #  define ASSERT(p) ((p) ? (void)0 : (void) fprintf(stderr, \
297                      "Assertion failed: %s, file %s, line %d\n\a", \
298                      #p, __FILE__, __LINE__ ) )
299 #endif


i'm not sure i see the two afore mentioned problems...

=====
In file included from dw-lst.h:35,
                 from sqafix.h:63,
                 from sqafix.c:62:
dw-def.h:140: parse error before `USHORT'
dw-def.h:173: parse error before string constant
dw-def.h:173: stray '\' in program
dw-def.h:174: undefined or invalid # directive
=====

line 140 is...

(USHORT)0x0F00)

and in comparison with other lines containing USHORT in that
area, it is possible that it should read

((USHORT)0x0F00)


[this one i believe i have fixed as it hasn't shown up in subsequent compile 
attempts...]


here're the lines in section 173/174 with line numbers added..

169 #ifdef NDEBUG
170 #  define ASSERT(p) ((void)0)
171 #else
172 #  define ASSERT(p) ((p) ? (void)0 : (void) AuxLog( \
173                      "Assertion failed: %s, file %s, line %d", \
174                      #p, __FILE__, __LINE__ ) )
175 #endif


this section is almost identicle to the one in dw-saa.h and the error must be 
something similar if not the very same...

=====
In file included fron sqafix.c:62:
sqafix.h:261: undefined or invalid # directive
=====

here're the lines in that section with line numbers added..

257 #ifdef NDEBUG
258 #  define ASSERT(p) ((void)0)
259 #else
260 #  define ASSERT(p) ((p) ? (void)0 : (void) Assert( \
261                      #p, __FILE__, __LINE__ ) )
262 #endif


this section is almost identicle to the one in dw-saa.h and dw-def.h... the 
error must be something similar if not the very same as the other two...

in all three, i'm wanting to question, at least, the #p on the last line... i 
have no idea on the "parse error before string constant" errors...

i believe that once these few problems are handled, i'll be able to conpile 
sqafix and thus complete a "make build" of a new install of the maximus cvs 
tree...
