  MODIFICATION LOG - modifiers, enter your name, affiliation, date and
  changes you are making here.

      Name, Affiliation, Date: Andy Goodrich, Forte Design Systems
                               5 September 2003
  Description of Modification: - Made creation of attributes structure      
                                 conditional on its being used. This eliminates
                                 100 bytes of storage for each normal sc_object.
