 Just out of interest, why are paNoDevice, paFloat32, etc, defines
 instead of const values?  
 I don't really know.  Isn't that kind of a six/half-dozen detail?   
 Probably.  I think it was Bjarne Stroustrup who said 
 something along the
 lines of "Every use of a define is an instance of a programmer not
 programming correctly."  But I was just wondering if it was some
 portability thing or something. 
  I think the basic idea is not to use preprocessor for programming...
