Two updates I forgot to post here.
Another release dedicated primarily to fixes, but there's also a new feature. Sorry for the rather unstable code I churned out earlier.
-Added #pragma pointer_space. Allows defining a default address space for pointers/references (ex: #pragma pointer_space global 10).
-Removed PTR_SPC define from libbcs.
-Fix question mark property not being initialized in some cases (resulted in random errors involving nullable reference type checks).
-Fix broken array type reference check (would cause perfectly matching reference types to error out, and the inverse).
-Fix void array references not being implicitly converted to structure references.
Internal changes:
-Remove unused member in ref_struct.
I also didn't forget to update the internal version string this time, so "zt-bcc -version" will properly output "0.10.0-alpha-4". Yay.
The wiki received some clean up and updates as well, and so did README.md. They should be up to date with current zt-bcc, so I recommend checking them out if you're interested.

If you want to stay as up to date as possible, please follow the Github repository, or check the thread over at the Zandronum forums: https://zandronum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=58&t=10336More than just fixes, we finally have some more new features, and even better... zcommon.bcs is up to date with current Zandronum 3.2! I hope you all enjoy and get some good use out of it.
* Updated zcommon.bcs to the latest Zandronum 3.2 functions and definitions.
* Added `module` as one of the address spaces you can specify for pointers, which is normally the default without `#pragma pointer_space`.
* Added `memcmp` to libbcs, works much like C `memcmp.` Useful for raw structure/array comparisons.
* Inlined and optimized all code for the printf-like functions in libbcs, should be faster now.
* libbcs map template definition now takes a compare function for keys. Current options are `LIBBCS_SIMPLE_CMP` and `LIBBCS_STRING_CMP`.
* Numerous fixes to the map template in libbcs, should work reliably now.
* Inline ASM lines must now end in semicolons rather than line breaks.
* Non-private reference initialization warning should only occur for module references now.
* Fixed code for accessing world/global references instead generating instructions for accessing module storage in some cases.
* Fixed reference type checking. Again.
