Good grief! Two completely wide open selectors. You could format a hard
drive using those things by overwriting the cached FAT. Your lucky Emacs
scribbled on something really sensitive and hung the box before i had the
chance.
Who did this in emacs? Is it the nearptr hack? I thought that just failed
completely under W9x.
