Does your TCP-DNR.INCL begin with this EXACT same sequence?  If not, the
TCP-DNR.INCL thinks the globals it needs are in a different memory space than
the main does.  In other words, the Main thinks the TCP globals are stored in
memory AFTER the BroadDraw, lineconsole, chessprefs and menus globals.  The
TCP-DNR.INCL must have the same information available to it.
