I spoke too soon, sorry to cast blame.  But I still have a problem.

The source of genSubRecordSizeOffset has

  pdbRecordType->papFldDes[42]->size=sizeof(prec->flnk);
  pdbRecordType->papFldDes[42]->offset=(short)((char *)&prec->flnk - (char
*)prec);
  pdbRecordType->papFldDes[43]->size=sizeof(prec->vers);
  pdbRecordType->papFldDes[43]->offset=(short)((char *)&prec->vers - (char
*)prec);
  pdbRecordType->papFldDes[44]->size=sizeof(prec->val);
  pdbRecordType->papFldDes[44]->offset=(short)((char *)&prec->val - (char
*)prec);
  pdbRecordType->papFldDes[45]->size=sizeof(prec->oval);
  pdbRecordType->papFldDes[45]->offset=(short)((char *)&prec->oval - (char
*)prec);

Note entry 43.  If I print out the items being looped over in
dbLexReoutines.c:dbRecordtypeBody  I get

 we are here 40
 pdbFldDes name = UDF     // this is item 40
 we are here 41
 pdbFldDes name = TIME
 we are here 42
 pdbFldDes name = FLNK
 we are here 43
 pdbFldDes name = VAL
 we are here 44
 pdbFldDes name = OVAL

Note that item 42 is FLNK but 43 is VAL, not VERS.  What happened to vers?

Thanks for any help.
