There are many fixes made but a few questions remain so when I reach
those years I will address those then. Unfortunately, due to
infrastructure work right now, this is all I can say even though there
are a number of things I'd like to say.

Use `make` to compile entries. It is possible that on non-Unix / non-Linux
systems the Makefile needs to be changed. See the Makefile for details.
Read over the Makefile for compile/build issues. Your system may require
certain changes (add or remove a library, add or remove a `#define`).
Some ANSI C compilers are not quite as good as they should be. If
yours is lacking, you may need to compile using gcc instead of your
local compiler.

This year we selected the top 4 entries for particularly high honors:
* Gold award - Balanced use of obfuscation
* [Balanced use of obfuscation - Gold Award](zeitak/index.html)
A very extremely subtle and twisted piece of source code!
Even if you start with the zeitak.alt.c source,
you will still have a very challenging time to understand it!

Ghostscript" because it managed to create some PDF files
that Ghostscript could not read.
