DESCRIPTION
     These routines routines are obsolete and are retained only for backwards
     compatibility.  They can be replaced with the following definitions:

     #define mdGetStatus(msg)    (msg[0] & MD_STATUSMASK)
     #define mdGetChannel(msg)   (msg[0] & MD_CHANNELMASK)
     #define mdGetByte1(msg)     (msg[1])
     #define mdGetByte2(msg)     (msg[2])
     #define mdSetStatus(msg,x)  (msg[0] = (x) | mdGetChannel(msg))
     #define mdSetChannel(msg,x) (msg[0] = mdGetStatus(msg) | (x))
     #define mdSetByte1(msg, x)  (msg[1] = (x))
     #define mdSetByte2(msg, x)  (msg[2] = (x))
