Subject: Re: accessing conventional memory addresses

_go32_conventional_mem_selector() is a reference to the
_go32_info_block.selector_for_linear_memory value, which does not
change once initialized at this time.

I don't guarantee that it won't change in the future, though.

You should use _go32_info_block.selector_for_linear_memory if you want
faster access; it's still a single memory reference and if the value
should change, you would automatically get the new value.
