Patch file #1 to fix bugs in V1.2 Kickstart
Written by Bryce Nesbitt. Please redistribute this file! Kickstart
V1.2 has some bugs that can randomly GURU the machine. Running this
program has protected you from these problems. You must reboot to get
rid of the protection. This program runs under Version 1.2 Kickstart
ONLY. If Version 1.3 Kickstart needs these fixes, then a separate
patch file will be provided. The bugs that are fixed:
1> On machines with $C00000 memory (like the A500 and A2000), the
Alert() function misbehaves. This makes any alert fatal, even the
"recoverable" ones.
2> Every time a window is closed (or, in fact, any layer is deleted)
the system frees a bit of memory then uses it again. This can
cause random crashes.

I regenerated the source, which was not originally included, using the
DSM disassembler from OTG Software.
