I must be using a different safe.e, because it works fine here.

Also, if you're changing this, you might consider return BAD1, BAD2, etc... so
we can easily distinguish the particular reason for rejecting a bad address. So
instead of just saying "BAD POKE", it could say "BAD POKE CODE 1" etc...

BTW, there is an unused local variable called 'half' in the safe.e allocate()
function.
