Summary: Patching the OS

ity for the OS that would allow any arbitrary change to the OS.
The Mac has this capability, and that was why it didn't hurt to have the
'reliable' parts of the OS to be put in ROM at the beginning.  Changes
are kept as INIT resources [?] which are loaded in at initialization and
replace the faulty/undesirable ROM routines.

Commodore doesn't 'need' this with the WCS since it is all loaded in at
initialization, but it should have it for later.
