Talking about pointers, is there any reason why I shouldn't do this on
a PC running DOS without multitasking:

while p <> nil do begin
  dispose(p);
  p := p^.next;
end;

???

I understand that with multitasking (OS/2 ?), an other process might
get the released memory before I get to assign p, but what about DOS ?
