[net.micro.amiga] Using static or malloc'd structures instead of using AllocMem

dillon@CORY.BERKELEY.EDU (Matt Dillon) (03/31/86)

	You can use static or malloc'd storage if:

	* They do not have to be in chip memory
	* They do not have to longword aligned.

	(There are ways to get around these problems, but they aren't
	very portable). 

	I think the major problem with people making mistakes as to which
method they use is that the Documentation (Sorry Amiga) is woefully lax in
making it clear just what must be in chip, and what does not need to be in
chip, what must be long-aligned, and what need not be long aligned.

	Why Amiga didn't get together with Lattice and have the compiler
default to long-aligned structures I don't know.
