The return value for the _bheapseg function is documented incorrectly
on page 147 of the "Microsoft C Reference," in the online help for C
6.00, and in the online help for QuickC versions 2.50 and 2.51.
On page 147 of the "Microsoft C Reference," the line that reads
Returns The selector for the newly allocated segment
if successful; -1 if not.
should read as follows:
Returns The selector for the newly allocated segment
if successful; 0 (_NULLSEG) if not.
The online help mentions the correct return value for the _bheapseg
function in the "Summary" section, except that it specifies NULLSEG
instead of _NULLSEG. The paragraph in the "Description" section titled
"Return Value" incorrectly documents the return value as -1.
