Charlie, there already IS a bit to deal with this: MEMF_PUBLIC. I quote from the early ROM Kernal Manual Vol 1 page 1-62. MEMF_PUBLIC Indicates that the memory requested is to be used for different tasks or interrupt code. This would be for task control blocks, messages, ports and so on. the designation MEMF_PUBLIC should be used to assure compatibility with future versions of the system. I interpret that paragraph to mean that MEMF_PUBLIC memory will NOT be swapped out in a virtual memory system. No need to invent any new flags, just use the ones we already have.
