I'm using system 3.1.1 from 12/85 Supplement (the one that shipped in 3/86), and before I call SFGetFile or SFPutFile, I have word 0 set to -1 (to make bad pointers bomb out real quick -- oh, for memory protection, but please, please not virtual memory). These routines set byte 0 of memory to 0. Every time. Nice, huh?
