[Eric Van Hensbergen]

I was getting Bus errors when I was using 9cpu.b with Feedkey. This
patch from Noah fixes the problem:

I don't see how this can change anything. These two lines seem to me the same.

- sys->write(dfd, array[] of {byte 'O', byte 'K'}, 2);
+ sys->write(dfd, array of byte "OK", 2);

Was that the whole diff?

That is the whole patch. I don't see what the difference is either
outside one worked for me and the other didn't (on the mac anyways).
I can double check just to make sure tommorow.
