A fix for that one is below.

I don't get a crash using the ASM-2.0 code from ftp.swarm.org, but
I do get a crash when I try to run Paul's newer code on sourceforge.

The symptom is a failed allocation from a silly value of numfcasts.
If you're nice to Paul, maybe he'll help investigate since he has
direct access to the machine and knows the ASM code better than I do.

It's hard for me to debug since I'm trying to do it over a slow ISDN
connection to a machine thousands of miles away, and the crash doesn't
happen until a bunch of X windows are running.
