   I found that my version of pepsy doesn't like the -C option which
   Project.tmpl passes it.  

   I took it out, but am weary of something happening down the road...

   Is this flag really supposed to be there, or is it a mistake, or do 
   I need a newer version of pepsy?

Oops.  I forgot to mention this.  Yes, if you are using pepsy from ISODE
6.8, you will need to take out the -C flag.  The -C flag turns on
"backwards compatibility mode".  Basically, the pepsy in ISODE 7.0 and
ISODE 8.0 generates one .h file instead of the three .h files generated
by ISODE 6.8; the -C flag tells pepsy to use the ISODE 6.8 style of 3 .h
files.

So if you are using pepsy from ISODE 6.8, just take out the -C flag and
you shouldn't have any problems.  Remember that if you are using 6.8,
you do need to apply our bug-fixes to pepsy, though.  Those bugfixes
were finally accepted by the ISODE people in version 7.0, so
'pepsy-fixes' isn't need if you are running 7.0 or 8.0.
