; strcat- Computes the lengths of two strings pointed at by es:di and follow-
;	  ing the call.  It then allocates storage for a string long enough 
;	  to hold the concatentation of these two strings.  Finally, it con-
;	  catenates the two strings storing the resulting string into the new
;	  buffer.  Returns ES:DI pointing at the new string.
;
; inputs:
;
;	ES:DI-	Points at the first string.
;
;	Return address points at the string to append.
;
;
; outputs:
;
;	ES:DI- Points at new string containing the concatenation of the
;	       two strings.
;
;	carry=0 if no error.
;	carry=1 if strcat2 could not allocate enough memory to hold
;		the resulting string.
