EMM386 UMB code hasn't really been seriously stress-tested, other than as a load and
go with upper memory programs, so there's a nonzero possibility of problems with UMB
releases and allocation block splits. I could never find a marginally useful UMB
tester out in the wild.
As time permits I may throw a few wads of bits together to create a test program which
runs through UMB allocates and releases of varying block sizes, see if EMM386 passes
all the tests.
