(nightly) constant error string emitted with stefano's name in it :)

This one placed here so it's not forgotten. I somehow sent this on the user list (misclick) and now the lists are down so I'm placing these bugs while the text is still on my clipboard.

I am getting a hard-coded error string if I forget to add "-lndos" to
compiles with the existing clib:

zcc +zx -vn rand.c -o rand

Error:

Error at file 'C:\Users\Stefano\AppData\Local\Temp\soa0_.opt' line 44: symbol not defined
Error at file 'C:\Users\Stefano\AppData\Local\Temp\soho_.opt' line 71: symbol not defined

It's claiming problems with a file on Stefano's machine. There is no
temp Stefano directory on my machine, those temp files are not the names
of the ones generated during compile and the line numbers are not
applicable. The entire string seems to be a constant somewhere in the
error output routine when missing "-lndos" on the compile line.

I'm guessing it was Stefano who compiled the libraries, and somehow the
filename and not the module name is embedded in the library - I thought it
used to report the XLIB name rather than the filename and also the missing
symbol.
