Under multifinder, I've had a few different programs bomb, claiming
they needed more memory, when "About Finder" tells me there is more
than enough memory in the largest unused block.  e.g. trying to run
the Tempo installer, it asked for 300-some K, and about finder told me
that there was over 500K, but the installer still bombed.  What is
going on and what can I do about it?  

thanks,
