I'm using a selector to access virtual mem i have allocated.  This is ok
for my off-screen buffer since it is only char types.  The question
becomes a little confusing when you want to allocate 32-bit data types. 
I need the precision of a long using virtual mem so i can use it as a
Zbuffer.  Is the offset char or long alligned in the farpokel?  Is there
a better way of doing it?  I am only writing to it l dword at a time. 
Thanks in advance!
