The mathlink.c code used to call external functions contains a programming 
error. The parameter information linked list is linked in reverse order to 
the functions actual parameters. This can cause type mismatch. 

The code is also restricted to using either one or two parameters, which is not mentioned in any Mathematica documentation. If more than two parameters are
needed to call a remote funcition you will have to edit the mathlink.c file
to include a switch selection statement that will coincide with the parameters
you require.
