<sect>Special segments<p>
The builtin config files do contain segments that have a special meaning for
and the libraries. It is placed in its own segment because it needs to be
loaded at the lowest possible program address on several platforms.
-This segment defines the location of the memory heap used by the malloc
-routine.
+The ZPSAVE segment contains the original values of the zeropage locations used
+by the ZEROPAGE segment. It is placed in its own segment because it must not be
+initialized.
