A late followup, though, but I tried mpmf20 recently on 5.2-current a few months
old and mpmf20, although compiling  flawlessly, doesn't work anymore.

It returns bogus values for my memory and expansion memory sizes (-16K)
and always claims that the mp3 file I want to upload is too large for the
memory (no wonder with a negative size)

Anyone using this archaic program in these days of usb memory sticks
with builtin mp3 players? Well, I still have this ancient piece of
hardware, which used to fulfill its purpose and although programming
support under Windows (XP) is long abandoned FreeBSD was still doing a
good service but at present I'm lost.
