Hmmm...yeah, I seem to remember someone else saying this at some point.
There must be some low memory global that we don't quite have the right
address for on the IIcx which we are touching.  The only problem with that
idea is that I thought a reboot pretty much wiped everything in memory,
but I guess maybe it doesn't.  Do we ever write to PRAM or anything like
that?

Later.
