simple packet flush with error detection ... returns ZERO for error
or DOSTRUE (-1) for a-o-k.
A packet error can be detected in most cases by "Res1" being equal
to zero--"Res2" will hold more information pertaining to the error.
The problem with handling multiple packets is detecting an error for a
particular packet. What makes things a little more difficult is the fact
that the "Res1" member of the packet structure is not generally an
indicator of an error. So depending on what type of packets you'll be
handling you might want to deal with packet replies differently.
( I was designing a elegant packet handling tool, but I found that
AmigaDos doesn't handle ports like EXEC does. So I couldn't have
a software interrupt generated on packet arrvial [sigh...] Tim? )
