Does anyone know (without digging the rom disassembly) if 1571, when calculating "BLOCKS FREE" value, takes into account what is stored in second BAM sector (53,0) for track 53? All sectors of this track should be allocated anyway, which means that under normal circumstances (a fully valid and non-custom, non-corrupted disk) it should not matter. But what if someone decided to make some use of those wasted sectors and modified the BAM accordingly?

Also: will it issue ILLEGAL T/S if a file is chained to track 53?
