There is a Tiny test program that uses a c language bridge program, tdb03 in 
the test programs. But the c language inteface program own't compile. Other c 
language items  in the test suite do compile. So perhaps Essex or somebody 
could debug that piece of code. I haven't done enoough c to tackle it. 

I am sending a cc to the tiny list to alert someone  to your problems posting. 
Make sure you are trying to post using the same email address that is in use 
when you receive posts.

Cheers,
