A thought occurred to me over the weekend regarding these dialogs being used
when the system is in various states of initialization or unknowns: use
SysError().

This isn't always appropriate, but there are sometimes then you want some
simple info and 1/2 buttons to do something to come up, but you don't know
what the environment is (namely if InitDialogs() has been called).  That is
what SysError() is for.

I wish I had thought of that when Mike Scanlin & I were doing nVIR Warn INIT.

Note: I haven't actually done this yet.  I just looked up IM and saw the
	possibilities.  If I'm missing the boat somewhere, please correct me.
