I'm using the default units and the emulated machine is too small and slow
to be overflowing anything. Also, showing 0.** is not an overflow.

The problem seems to be that  FreeAXP is emulating an Alphaserver 400 4/166.
If I use the disk to boot the Stromasys DS20 emulator, monitor works without
the bogus formatting. I also works on a real ES47 running 8.4-L2. I thought I
read that Migration Specialties had tweaked FreeAXP so it could run the 8.4-L2
build.
