     And? command.com remain in memory stub, this stub my defragment its
memory (when env segment is adjacent with command.com block). Or, in case of
adjacent blocks, command.com may swap them (ie. place env segment before
itself).

     Yes, this requires slightly more work in command.com, but this gives
better memory distribution and less holes.
