There used to be an old bug in the Pascal compiler which did not let you
run programs on a machine with over 512k.  There were fixes but IBM only
released them to people who asked specifically for them. The cheap and
dirty fix is A) switch off sufficient memory so you are below 512K or B)
run a ramdisk to eat up the extra space so you are below 512K.
