I've gotten the nofastmem method to work on my A3000, but only for
the first shell. Once I try to open another shell, the machine locks
up, even though the nofastmem is run again. I have tried a couple
of different ways of putting a lock on s:.skshinit, but haven't 
found an acceptable way that allows SKsh to run. How did you do it?
