If your declaration is local to a function, it will be allocated from the
stack--I don't think the stack may be any larger than 64k.  I'm not sure
about declaring it as a static (ie global)--it might work that way.  I am
sure that it may be drawn from the heap as a dynamic array by using
farmalloc(), and recycled into the heap with farfree().
