I can't help with the other bugs mentioned in the article I'm folowing up
(That's why you don't see a copy of that article here), but I've experienced
one of my own.

Whenever I try to use lmalloc, the version of malloc which can allocate blocks
larger than 64k, I gt out of memory.  Well, I have a megabyte of memory,
and teh configuration of my system makes no difference.  It happens with or
without my 128K RAM disk which would lead me to believe that there is another
problem.  I _have_ been giving it an unsigned long argument.

Anyone used lmalloc successfull?  Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!  --Steve
