  After checking my code, I've been doing it correctly, as in

    OwnBlitter();
    // pre-compute registers
    WaitBlit();
    // write to custom registers
    DisownBlitter();

  I got the skeleton code from a Thomas Rokiki [uh oh, did I spell
it right?] custom blitter example. Thanks Tom. 
Is this legal for 1.4?
