:>   Log:
:>   It is not acceptable to index the array out of bounds if an illegal index
:>   is passed to a ctype function or macro.  Undo the last commit.  Emplace an
:>   explicit range check for the integer passed to the ctype macros and
:>   functions rather then underflowing or overflowing the array.  Currently
:>   return 0 if the integer is out of range (it might be more appropriate to

:It is definately more appropriate to assert IMO.

    Well, it's hard to say.  If the standard said we should assert, then
    we should assert.  But the programmer might not have the expectation  
    of an is*() call *EVER* causing the program to exit.
