Humm, I know that an os9 executable starts with an $87CD, and that a c code 
library module starts with a $62CD, but not what a PCODE module starts with 
to identify itself as PCODE.  Is there a conventional integer assigned to 
that case?

I'm thinking, just in case there is ever need for a vfy18.
