Even with Makefile.appl changes to keep code backward compatible on 
non-Mac Unix, there seems to be the implication that Mac-based models 
will follow new conventions, and apparently only to make XCode happy.  
Thus, models developed on Macs, seem to end up with interface changes 
that won't be compatible with existing conventions.  Thus, there is an 
old implicitly obsolete way and a new Mac way, and all existing models 
fall into the former category.  Did I get that right, and if so is there 
really no way to hook XCode Makefiles to use -I, etc. as Bill says?

I understand GUI things are a sticky problem, but at least it ought to 
be possible to keep BatchSwarm code working without modification.  ?
