__tb is already allocated, it's a static buffer.  Just use it.  The
only time you need to allocate your own buffer is if __tb is not big
enough for what you need (and even then, you can use stubedit to
increase it) or if you need multiple buffers.

You should not ever *change* the transfer buffer, it's set up for you
by djgpp.
