Well, no wonder...

42-21 says AllocGen = extern pascal Word AllocGen(requestPriority);

Now, since I was using genNum=AllocGen(0,64);  APW should probably crash,
but didn't.  I think I would crash too if I were given too many parameters!

Now, how come C headers don't have any type of parameters?  I think that
would probably help the compilers generate code, and help with ANSI C :-)

At least now I have NEW toolbox books, etc coming.  Mine are the original
11/86 books :-(
