I had a mix of go32.exe (1.08) and debug32 (1.09 - Csaba's nicely tuned
version for faster symbol table reading) on my machine.
This was because I had this different behaviour of getting an exception 117
(go32 1.08) and getting none (debug32patched 1.09).
Sorry for the confusion that this might have caused but at least it has unveiled
that there is a problem with exception handling under 1.09.

Another problem:
the ported (Eric Backus) Gnu fileutilities (cp, mv etc.), especially
cp appear to very slow. Copying a 250K file takes 16 seconds and causes
my hard disk to hum like a bee while the DOS COPY takes only 1 second.
Why?
