Actually, the only problem for the Megas is with the Mega 4.  Since the ST can
only address up to 4 meg, if you try to access above that, you get a bomb.  On
a Mega 2, you are not breaking that limit, so you can safely test above 2 meg
and not get a bomb.  The simple test for exactly 4 meg is the proper solution.
