SmallInteger has a class variable: Digitbuffer. It is not used in any method, except SmallInteger class|initialize. What is it? Why is it there?

It is left over from when the print routine used a preallocated buffer in which to compute its results. It is no longer used and should be removed. Thanks for pointing this out.
