I think the new Quartz has something, as some of the Project builder 
files/demos show some cool stuff, but only for drawing, not fitting, 
that I know.

I have about given up on this again for now. Too many hours at the 
machine for no results.

There must be some properties to a C compiler that just can't be 
finagled into BASIC for this particular  Port/listing as written....

The GenerateBezier in FitCurves.c seems to be the problem child.

I wrote Richard Kinch at TrueTex.com about his own search...even though 
I saw posts of his on Usenet whining about the same code, and wanting 
aother solution, he must have found one, since he now does "Bezier 
consulting", but -still- referred me to this damnable Schneider 
algorithm, even twisting the knife saying he has compiled it fine, try 
Gnu-C.

I give up at this point(s).
