 I think I may not have reset up permissions on new box so let me know.

 -- Warning: REGINA's uneducated opinion coming up --

 I suspect you need to move the functions out of varint.h (or we have to
 live with the warning which is just in cunit thankgoodness or you have to
 combine your twkb and cu_varint tests in one file.

 Since varint is included in both lwout_twkb and cu_varint.  I think the
 issue is the linker (something finicky with mingw evidentally).  That both
 cu_twkb and cu_varint don't consider varint already included  each embeds
 a copy of the functions and when they are linked together it sees
 duplicate function definitions and chokes.  I want to reiterate that I
 have NO IDEA what I am talking about, so take my opinion with a grain of
 salt :)
