i'll go ahead now and check if this fixes my mysterious hangups.

made some tests, and - Yep, it works ! I'd strongly encourage everybody
experiencing strange hangups to apply the little fix to mm_init() i
suggested. For me, it makes malloc() and dll work perfectly.

BTW, there are some minor flaws in dll[x], that might confuse one
(especially in FAST mode):

- if the ACK for the very last data packet sent to the RCX gets lost,
the PC will report failure although the upload was successfull.

- if upload fails because RCX memory is exhausted, the PC will not
report this, it will just time out and report failure.
