Actually, I working with Eddy Morfan, who has a preliminary(?) virtual
memory setup for MiNT (correcty me if I'm wrong, Eddy).  Virtual
addressing will in no way exclude virtual memory.  In fact, it
should make its implementation easier, as there will no longer have
to be one-to-one mapping of physical memory and logical memory.
