NT4:
	_chkesp exists under msvcrt.dll, msvcrtd.dll, msvcrt60.dll
	_alloca_probe exists under Rpcproxy.dll, Ntdll.dll, Shell32.dll
		Rpcrt4.dll, and Mpr.dll.

Win98:
	_chkesp exists under msvcrt.dll and msvcrtd.dll
	_alloca_probe exists under wupdatto.dll

	It appears that if you truly need these calls, you will need to 
add a new library to your usr\local\lib directory based on the 
.dlls noted above (implib should do this quite nicely).

Nothing real can be threatened.
    Nothing unreal exists.
