"Numerical Recipes in C" is nonportable code

According to peter at ficc.uu.net (Peter da Silva):

More to the point:  The dpANS says you (the implementor) are _allowed_ to
load the selector into a selector register when computing the address.  To
do otherwise could slow down register-intensive pointer manipulation.
