That ought to work, too.

On CPAN testers, KS 0.161 has 43 passes and 3 failures.  2 of the  
failures are on Solaris, and I suspect they are due to an alignment  
problem (casting an I32 in the middle of a string of char), which is  
gone in the devel branch.  The other failure is on MSWin32, but if  
you look at the output, you see that all the tests were passed save 1  
and the problem looks to be a permissions failure due to poor test  
design.  There's a pass on Cygwin.

Since 0.12, KS has been written in something reasonably close to ANSI  
C, and has been reasonably portable as a result.
