I've tried doing this too, with the same results... Or, sometimes, am
instant GURU when the program ends, or even when it starts.
I'm not sure why - maybe some Blitz commands use these objects internally
without you realizing it, or quite possibly it's a bug in the shutdown,
when Blitz tries to free everything when the program ends.
I did find by trial and error that it was only certain objects that caused a
problem if set to 0, and it seemed to be safe to set everything to 1.
Later...
