Gah! Another monkey wrench!  I don't think it should be a problem,
however.  One question--is the I-O CONTROL required to follow the FILE
CONTROL paragraph, or does it matter?  I guess it shouldn't matter too
much, if we build the parse tree before carrying out the actions, but it
would be really nice to have the file structures defined before we
started messing with their respective memory areas!
