994 initializes the French/Canadian chip.  If you have speakers on your
system you will start hearing colourful Quebecois cuss words whenever
you enter an incorrect code.  After three attempts Maurice Chevalier
will start singing:  "Tank 'eaven for leetel buttons, for leettel
buttons they grow beeg-ger every day"...
