realloc() is in the file heapmem.o distributed in lib.  However,
small model realloc() is broken because of an argument was passed as long
instead of int to movmem() in the function.  Therefore, chances are high
that you'll lose the content of the reallocated buffer.  I tried a patch
and things appear to work fine.
