It seems that System 6.0 is much more strict with regard to memory management,
i.e., handles.  If you're using fake handles, or you don't check when things 
are purged, etc., you're dead.  In code I have been writing, when I tried 
"fooling around" my programs blew up.  If I act like a paranod maniac when it 
comes to handles and making sure I follow TN117 things work OK...
