Subject:	swap file weirdness

I found that whenever I start my large application (which invokes
go32 in the path - that was with 1.09 but 1.12m2 does it too)
which pages to the swap/page file and I exit the application,
a subsequent chkdsk /f finds about 150 lost units which accumulate
to a 2MB chunk of disk space.

Side note: The application opens about 60 files or so (so that is 20+).
I cannot say for sure that it is the go32 swap file which is left
in some weird state but it looks like, since smaller applications
that do not swap, leave the disk in a clean state.

Also changing GO32TMP to D:/tmp moves the problem to disk d:.

Anyone seeing the same problem?
