       MSC: void _based(void) *_bmalloc( _segment seg, size_t size )
       MSC: void far *_fmalloc( size_t size )
       MSC: void near *_nmalloc( size_t size )


       - prototype in malloc.h

       - size = number of bytes to allocate
       - seg = base segment value
       - malloc() maps to _fmalloc or _nmalloc based on memory model
       - _fmalloc allocates memory outside the default data segment if
         possible
       - returns pointer to allocated block or NULL on error;  _bmalloc()
         function returns _NULLOFF on error
       - these functions will allocate a zero length block
