BING!  You have to have a copy of go32.exe in your path when you run a
file that only has the stub attached to it.  This is the only common
thing between these two programs.  What happens is that stub.exe runs
go32.exe (from the path) and passes it information about its command
line.  Go32 then reads the .exe file and extracts the a.out
information from it.
