OK, I get it now. There's junk in unALLOTted memory up to a certain
point; after that it's all zeroes. So after that point, then if you
have a wordlist at the end of the dictionary, `head?` thinks it's is
followed by a header even though it isn't, and then that causes trouble.

Ah, ok, with some more digging around, I'm guessing it's a false

I ran into the problem). Is it a bit dodgy in that case also?
