NAME
    WriteBattMem -- Write a bitstring to nonvolatile ram.  (V36)

SYNOPSIS
    Error = WriteBattMem( Buffer, Offset, Len )
    D0                    A0      D0      D1

    ULONG WriteBattMem( APTR, ULONG, ULONG );

FUNCTION
    Write a bitstring to the nonvolatile ram.

INPUTS
    Buffer          Where to get the bitstring.
    Offset          Bit offset of first bit to write.
    Len             Length of bitstring to write.

RESULTS
    Error           Zero if no error.

NOTES
    The battery-backed memory is checksummed. If a checksum error
    is detected, all bits in the battery-backed memory are
    silently set to zero.

    Partial byte writes (less than 8 bits) result in the bits
    written being read from the low-order bits of the source byte.
