Okay, while we're wasting time here anyway <g> I've got a question. Why
x'DEADBEEF'?
I recall that on AIX on the RS/6000, that was what the OS filled
unallocated memory with. If you referenced un-initialized malloc
("GETMAIN") storage, you got dead beef, rather than 0. Kind of a cool
feature - more recognizable for debugging than an unintended 0.
