[Coco] os version check

[Bob Devries]

Hi Wayne,

It should also be possible to circumvent this problem (if you're only 
concerned with the page pause) by calling SysCall with the appropriate 
function call codes.

I'm away from my documentation, so I can't help much more than that.

Regards, Bob Devries
