prior parameter's size depends on `Decinput'_(re)

Hi, everybody!

I just fixed it.  The problem is that the size of the `DecInput' parameter
depends on its own actual value (the `Capacity' field of the string).
Normally, GPC can handle this, but in this case, the second occurrence of

> function DecToBin( DecInput : string ) : wrkstring;

affected the size of the string type in the *first* occurrence.  When
GPC recycled this first occurrence to define the function, throwing away
the second one, the size of the string went to Nirvana.
