Subject:	accessing conventional memory addresses

  What sort of events change the value of _go32_conventional_mem_selector()
during a program run? Can I call `cms=_go32_conventional_mem_selector()' once
at the start of the program run, and rely on `int gms' holding the correct
selector value right through the program run?
