	Known bug, cannot be fixed via Setpatch, but will be fixed in
1.4.  It has to do with looking at an incorrect section of memory, whose
value depends on how many drives you have in the system.

	There are a number of configurations in which it shows up.  I believe
it is usually fine with a df0: and df1:.  It usually fails with just a single
floppy.

	I tried to find a way to patch it, but it's buried too deeply in
the trackdisk code.  The bug ONLY affects RAWREAD/RAWWRITE.
