Durnit, I thought that was the case... Those darn types can exist in too
many files to find the proper include (if they exist).  I never got
around to messing with configure for this, 'cause I never got d.area
functioning properly.

Probably a good idea.  Really only nead the 8bit unsigned char.  But I
think the whole thing is fsck'ed.  Am trying to get a version working
with a third party clipping library.  Hopefully I can get that working
(it promises to make triangle trips!).  If only the API were better
documented, so's I could understand why a certain function call is
causing a segfault ;(. Anyway...
