In my fixed point functions renaming patch, "ffloor" is changed to
"fixfloor". A static inline function called "ffloor" is added for
backwards compatibility. If necessary, we could #ifdef out the
backwards compatibility functions if IRIX is detected (but of course,
we lose... backwards compatibility). Or we could use the hack Stepan
wrote, but I hoped we could get rid of that.

I agree.

Please test the patch I mentioned.
It's at http://www.alphalink.com.au/~tjaden/dev/fixchanges.diff.gz
It might not apply cleanly because allegro._tx has been moved.
