No, if you included the above setting, all memory is locked.  But you 
should make sure that it is indeed locked, since the startup code 
currently doesn't.  It shouldn't be a problem with small programs and 
machines which aren't too tight on RAM, though.

AFAIK, you don't need to lock conventional memory at all, as it is never 
swapped out (or else DOS itself could be swapped out, which is an absolute 
no-no).
