	Lets not start a war, the original suggestion that ASDG did not use
AllocMem was a guess, not fact.

	But this brings up a good point on AllocMem... It would be nice if 
you could specify something like 'MEMF_END' requesting AllocMem to allocate
from the end of it's pool rather than the front.  Thus, specific applications
which allocate and deallocate constant block-sizes all the time AND stick
around in memory (e.g. a RAM disk) could use it and many of the amiga's
fragmentation problems would go away.
