Initial import of memtester-2.93.1 from pkgsrc-wip, contributed by
<pancake at phreaker.net> with some minor changes by me. memtest is a utility for testing the memory subsystem in a computer to determine if it is faulty. The original source was by Simon Kirby <sim@stormix.com>. I have by this time completely rewritten the original source, and added many additional tests to help catch borderline memory. I also rewrote the original tests (which catch mainly memory bits which are stuck permanently high or low) so that they run approximately an order of magnitude faster.
