It's possible you don't have enough Fast memory for the allocation so
the routines give you Chip memory. Please never, ever, ask for just
"Fast" memory because on many machines (in particular 1M 2000's with
1M agnui) there won't be any Fast memory and your program will fail
even though there is enough memory to answer the request. If you think
things are behaving strangely, run the Frags program from the Lattice
distribution disk, or one of the early Fish disks to show you what your
memory map looks like.

These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.
