I should add that there is another bug in FLbutBank that applies to *all*
Windows versions of Csound (including AV).

In the following code:

gkrat, irat FLbutBank 1, 11, 1, 414, 25, 35, 129, -1, 0
 FLsetVal_i 0, irat

the default output (button select) of FLbutBank is set to 0 by FLsetVal_i.
However, substituting any other valid output button number for 0 still
results in an output of 0. As a result, the default button must always be
the first one (0).

I'd much appreciate this bug being corrected in all Csounds. I presume that
the problem may well be with FLbutBank correctly responding to the irat
variable being passed from FLsetVal_i.

Thanks much.
