From reading an article on the scea CodeWarrior newsgroup it seems that 
floating
point emulation is unavailable

The suspect line was
		nBytesInRow = ceil(sizeX / 8.0);
(Okay, less than optimal but it's not a critical path function.)
It has now been replaced by
		nBytesInRow = (sizeX + 7) / 8;

Not true! I was using an external editor and executing make Ctrl-M did 
not 
recompile fgfont.c (dependecy cacheing?) (Using Watcom Editor 1.0. Even 
Word 6.0
is more responsive than CW's built-in editor(!) (I now see the wisdom of 
separating
the editor from the IDE - thanks, Watcom!))

Also having nested "/* ... */" style comments did not help matters, 
either.
