This occurs if the file "compat01.ew" is not in the 'include path'. The
'include path' is a list of two directories - the INCLUDE directory in the
directory you installed Euphoria, and the directory you are running the
euphoria program from.

The win32lib library is a collection of many include files. All of them have
to be in the 'include path'.

The simplest solution (until RDS improves the 'include path' concept) is to
copy all the *.e and *.ew files that come with win32lib library into the
Euphoria INCLUDE directory.

For example, if you installed Euphoria in C:\EUPHORIA then Euphoria's
INCLUDE directory is C:\EUPHORIA\INCLUDE
