Well further investigation reveals that if I set the "EMS KB required field"
in the PIF editor to 0, then the emstest program works fine....
If I set the KB required field to anything other than 0, then the emstest
program fails when deallocating memory...

This is strange, now I am only curious as to what the problem is, as
this is a perfectly useable work around for me!!
