I found out the answer to the question and thought I'd share it with you all. It seems that this error response was the result of a bug in the C compiler which the Apollo people noticed in the compiler on St. Patrick's Day. The error message is a vestige of the development stage and was not meant to remain in the released version. Greg Sandell
