   NAME
	CoerceMode -- calculate ViewPort mode coercion (V39)

   SYNOPSIS
	ID = CoerceMode(RealViewPort, MonitorID, Flags);
	d0              a0            d0         d1

	ULONG CoerceMode(struct ViewPort *, ULONG, ULONG);

   FUNCTION
	To determine the best mode in the MonitorID to coerce RealViewPort to,
	given the restrictions set in Flags.

   INPUTS
	RealViewPort - ViewPort to coerce
	MonitorID    - Montor number to coerce to (ie a mode masked with
	               MONITOR_ID_MASK).
	Flags        - PRESERVE_COLORS - keep the number of bitplanes
	               in the ViewPort.
	               AVOID_FLICKER - do not coerce to an interlace mode

   RESULTS
	ID      - ID of the best mode to coerce to, or INVALID_ID if could not
	          coerce (see NOTES).

   NOTES
	This function takes into account the compatibility of the Monitor
	being coerced to, and the ViewPort that is being coerced.
	Incompatibilities will cause a result of INVALID_ID.

   EXAMPLE
	newmode = CoerceMode(vp, VGA_MONITOR_ID, PRESERVE_COLORS);
