I was having problems using getimage() in borland C++.  It can not get images
that are greater than 64K-1.  When you use imagesize to determine the size it
will return -1 when there is not enough heap, and 0 when the image is greater
that 64K-1.

That's completely fair. ANSI won't let you assume that you can allocate
more than 64k at once.
