Subject:	GPF when accessing video memory directly

Using the _farpokeb and related functions in sys/farptr.h
compiles fine, but then GPFs with a 'unsupported int 0x0D'
message when run. All I'm doing is

#include <sys/farptr.h>

unsigned char gc=65;

_farpokeb(0xb800,0,gc);


I'm obviously doing something wrong, since far mem i/o
has to work, but what..?
