* "getl" gets an LONG (4 byte) value from the input stream.
* Note that what's written (binary) by a PDP 11 (UNIX: lo byte, hi byte)
* system will NOT be compatible with what's written by a
* 68K (NUXI: hi byte, lo byte) system.
*
* Calling sequence:
* l = getl(stream)
* Where:
* l = a 32-bit long value
* stream-> a (FILE *) input stream
