(heh, memory management)
The v1 headers are 12 bytes and the text section starts at 014 (i.e. the
header is part of the text section and *it* begins at zero, not the code)
So, if we assemble with the v7 as we need to adjust things a bit.
Ahh, that makes sense. So if we build with the 1ed "as" then those
first few lines should be commented out since they will be occupied
by the a.out header. Ahh! yess, it makes sense, e00-02 has
a section at orig+400 "copy in transfer fectors" where those
vectors are overwritten during startup.
We really should try building with the 1ed assembler. I think a simple
sed s/mount/xmount/ over the whole sources will probably fix the mount
label issue.
