Maybe calc shouldn't bump them too high, then.

Would I start calc, repetedly press "M" and then crash emacs – well, 
maybe I was asking for trouble. But I pressed M as suggested, then 
checked to docs, then again pressed M as suggested, then did something 
else, returned to calc, pressed M again as suggested, and so on...
