How much memory is available when I use the system() call?

Everything which was free before your program started, except what go32 is loaded with. Your program is completely paged out of memory (including the page tables themselves) before the second program is executed. Currently, this leaves about 130K less than was available before go32 was executed, since go32 itself remains in memory.
