r.in.ascii dying with segmentation fault <sigh>

[Peter Briggs]

Hi All, 

To the point:  My first attempt at using floating point r.in.ascii allowed
the parameter input but then died immediately on trying to import the file.
It used to work fine (and I used a file that I've imported before).

History that may be relevant:
After a blind struggle I managed to get most of the floating point update
compiled on our SGI Indy (R4400) running Irix 5.3.  One modification that
was instrumental was to add DATETIMELIB = /usr/lib/libc.so.1 to the
src/CMD/generic/make.mid file.  Otherwise, I used the SGI header file that
was posted to the list some time ago, which I've included below.

If others have a log describing their successful implementation on this
machine I'd sure like to hear it.  If I ever get this working I'll happily
post mine.

Cheers, Peter Briggs
