OS_Erh, Set error handler

Register parameters

RST 20H, DEFB $75
IN:
     A = 0, always (call level, other values reserved for system use)
     HL = address of new error handler
     HL = 0, use default system error handler (in lower 8K of segment 0)

OUT:
     Fc = 0, always
     A  = old call level
     HL = address of old error handler

Registers changed after return:
     ..BCDE../IXIY same
     AF....HL/.... different

Notes

Make sure that the error handler is not paged out of the corresponding segment, when calling OZ. If an error occurs random information will be executed, since the original code of the particular bank has been paged out.
