Debatable.

I never heard anything back, didn't expect any quick fixes, but a look
today on his GitHub repo shows this:

https://github.com/PerditionC/fdkernel

"kernel    fix reading from NULL; sentinel lost due to conversion to
char from int    15 days ago"

But you (all) may have to manually build it from sources (with
OpenWatcom) as I'm not personally aware of any public binary for this.

But his README.md does explicitly say:  "Please feel free to email
me", so feel free!   :-)
