Version 1.1 - 3/15/89
  save and restore EMS page map
Version 1.2 - 3/29/89
  add more compiler directives (far calls off, boolean short-circuiting)
  add UseEmsIfAvailable to disable EMS usage when desired
Version 1.3 - 5/02/89
  fix problem with exit chain when InitExecSwap/ShutdownExecSwap called
    more than once in a program
  flush swap file before execing
