   Master ROM
   ----------
   30+rom terminal width and background/foreground colours
   
   Documentation states the Master ROM also uses byte 39 and 44, which
   are allocated for ROM 9 and ROM 14, to store the alarm time.
   
   VFS
   ---
   Very naughtily, VFS access location 20+rom instead of 30+rom, so
   trashing any ability to use locations 20-29 if VFS is present. Byte
   &907A and &9088 in VFS 1.70 needs to be patched, changed from 20 to 30
   to fix this.

          b7    unused
   
   Internationalisation ROM
   ------------------------
   Also incorrectly uses 20+rom instead of 30+rom. This is particularly a
   problem as the Internationalisation ROM is typically used in the Master
   Compact which only has three ROMs by default, so if it is ROM slot 10 or
   above, it will overwrite location 30+rom.
   
   20+rom country number, copied to OSBYTE 240.       *Config. Country <nn|name>
