There is a temporary memory call, _MFTopMem, that gives the actual value
of _TopMem under MultiFinder.  Although the service always existed, the glue
was not made public in the first release of the MultiFinder developer's
package -- it will be available in new releases.  The glue is something like:

#define OSDISPATCH				0xA88F

#define mfTopMemSel				22

#define MFTopMem() \
	cMFTopMem(mfTopMemSel)

pascal Size cMFTopMem(SW)
	short			SW;
	extern 			OSDISPATCH;

but this is *not* official.  If you plan to use the glue, please use the
version put out through APDA.
