If you look at the top of the init_record() routine, you'll see that it
only gets that far down the routine when pass==1, so there would be no
point passing pass anyway.
The second argument to the init subroutine has been the address of the
record's process routine since CVS records began (R3.12.2). Why did you
think it should be the pass (is there some documentation somewhere that
implies this? I have a vague feeling I've seen something, but it's not
the record reference manual which doesn't even list a second argument to
the initialzation subroutine).
