   I've found an issue with MPE functions that retuern a CHAR.  No matter what   
   you set the return value to be, it only ever returns a 1.   
      
   I believe this was addressed previous to ALPHA 21, as it apprears to have   
   been fixed then.  I found this in the history.txt file.   
      
    + MPE: Support for CHAR variables as function results has been added.  I   
      didn't even realized that they weren't supported!  Hrrmmm,   
      Forgetful I am, yes...   
      
   But apparently, it hasn't been fixed.
