In a preceding mail, after analysis of the problem, I had concluded as
follows:

<<I think It will not possible to use glut32.dll with SwiftForth.

The executable GLUT consumer have to be a CONSOLE application: there
is a lot of "printf" in the code.

Also, the executable have to be a multithreaded application.

Inside GLUT.H, there is the next definition:

    /* GLUT callback calling convention for Win32. */
    # define GLUTCALLBACK __cdecl

So, the __cdecl convention is used. Not compatible with the original
CB: definition.>>
