Can anyone tell me what OSDispatch is supposed to do?  I'm tracing
through some code and I'm forced to guess what's going on behind
this closed door.  I gather from tech note #180's brief mention
that it has something to do with MultiFinder and memory allocation.
It takes an int selector code < $20 (it seems) and I found a table
of addresses followed by two shorts that might have been size of
parameter, size of return value.

Any pointers would be appreciated.  I don't have any MultiFinder
documentation (except tech notes), so that might be all I need.
