One more thing about the Standard File Package routines.  I'm using system
3.1.1 from 12/85 Supplement (the one that shipped in 3/86), and before I
call SFGetFile or SFPutFile, I have word 0 set to -1 (to make bad pointers
bomb out real quick -- oh, for memory protection, but please, please not
virtual memory).  These routines set byte 0 of memory to 0.  Every time.
Nice, huh?
