Log message:
	now that initialization is in better shape, go back to
	PushEFrame assumes initialization has already occured, else crashes.
	This should save a few cycles off functions that use try or lock.
	
	NEW used in InitActivations
	
	Could now use NEW/DISPOSE for mutexes/conditions also, ref array of char, but not yet
	(I just need to lookup syntax)
	(Tony prefers all allocations use NEW and not Cstdlib.calloc; calloc
	was used here before because NEW used TRY/RAISE, TRY/RAISED used PushEFrame, PushEFrame
	used NEW => circularity, fixed previously by having PushEFrame use calloc
	instead of NEW,  now fixed by having NEW only use TRY/RAISE (just RAISE actually)
	in the failure path -- early initialization/allocation is "fragile"
	in that if you can't allocate much of anything at all, you'll crash
	or infinitely recurse, whereas before, well, we left it derefing NULL
	from calloc anyway; note that "startup" isn't "necessarily" early, such
	as in a dynamically loaded case -- better might be on Win32 to push
	early allocation into DllMain and fail that if low on resources, or try
	to somehow propagate the errors whenever they occur -- i.e. raising an exception
	should require very little resources, allocated up front with the process or thread).
