The documentation in the C Version 5.10 readme.doc about the
document error in the run-time library reference is incorrect. The
documentation says the following:

        char * ext[4]

 should read

        char * ext[5]

   The documentation should say the following:

  should read

        char ext[5]

   In addition, drive, dir, fname, and ext should not have asterisks
(stars, "*"'s) in front of them either.  A proper declaration is:

    char path_buffer[40], drive[3], dir[30], fname[9], ext[5];
