PD> (Atari Compendium, TOS.HYP), you'll read that the "bit 3" has a
PD> special meaning
After I look to some old news I things that this is wrong. What I found is that
for MiNT the bit 3 is defined, but not used (sys/dosmem.c):
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------
# if 0
/* I'm very suspicious of the 0x08 flag; I can't see how it could
* work as the comment below seems to indicate -- ERS
*/
/* if the mode argument has the 0x08 bit set then you're trying
* to change the protection mode of a block you already own.
* "size" is really its base address. (new as of 2/6/1992)
*/
if (mode & 0x08) change_prot_status(curproc,size,protmode);
# endif
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------
I will changed the tos.hyp that bit is reserved.
