I found the bug in zwgc which was causing blank windows to appear when a
notice fragment appeared (without the corresponding other fragments) or
when a notice was re-transmitted.

It wasn't checking the value of ZPending() to see if it was > 0, so it
occasionally blocked waiting for a Zephyr notice to arrive.

The fix should appear in 6.1.

John
