Triggered memories of differences.  Sure enough, I set the stubinfo size
to a truncated value (0x44) when v2load'ing.  We could use this to
decide, since the real stub has never used a stubinfo this short (at
least not since pre-beta 2.00 development...  This requires no changes 
to v2load or go32-v2, small change to dpmiexcp.

If testing is OK will commit for both v2_03_1 and CVS.
