rst 38 = call $38

That instruction is not used in any TI program... I promise :)

You have to remember that a disassembler doesn't regonize the difference
between CODE and DATA. So, when you see a rst 38h, you can be sure
it's data. The opcode for rst 38h is $FF, which explains why
you found it so often.
