New I assume it's related to sizes of various things changing as memory spaces got bigger.
Let's see...

REVISION NOTES

This is version 6.0.1 of xbattle, by Mike Mayer, based on the version
5.4.1 by Greg Lesher. Much has changed in software developement since
this game was released in 1991. Unfortunatey, this has made xbattle
uncompilable on many platforms. This is a rewrite of 5.4.1 in C++11.
As with the original, it requires the X11 library (and headers).
Unlike the original, it also requires STL (the standard template library).


[...]

BUG FIXES

On some machines the "char" type is assumed signed, while on others it is
assumed unsigned. A new typedef for signed and unsigned char types has
been created.

[...]


Something like that?

Have fun!

Cheers,
Scott.
