Is there a need for the equivalent of _fmalloc() in djgpp?  I assume no,
because there are no 64k segment restrictions (just learned that a day
ago ;-).  Does that mean malloc() will allocate memory dynamically from
all of the available ram on my machine?  Or are there other restrictions
that limit the size of memory I can allocate dynamically with malloc()?
What about new?  And if my first assumption is incorrect, what is the
_fmalloc() equivalent in djgpp?  Thanks
