Features of this version:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
* The support module uses dynamic areas when available (eg; through having a
RiscPC or installing DummyDynamicAreas or whatever) but defaults to using RMA
if these aren't available. Luckily most blocks are small so fragmentation
shouldn't be too much of a problem.
* Works right back to RO2.
* Compatible with the Win32 thread handling API's through the provided C
thunking layer (threads n/i as yet)
* Multiple clients not a problem.
* Works with Basic (any threads you create cannot be Basic code though).
* Written entirely in lovingly hand-crafted assembler.
* Correctly preempts tasks using floating-point registers and uses multiple
FP stores and loads when available
* Saves and restores the current VDU redirection state
* Handles the "reply-before-next-Wimp_Poll" problem elegantly and flexibly
