    Unfortunately, it's not my own program that's leaking -- I know how to work
    with that -- but another program, probably one of several ancient shareware
    games that I'm loathe to give up even though they're still Win16 because
    they're fun. What I really need, I think, is a way to accurately monitor
    the Win16 graphics resources as I start and end programs to see what's not
    giving back what it took.
