I'm running with NetWare 3.11 myself with no problems that I can
blame on netware per se.  There are a few slight differences in
filesystem semantics (for example, attempting to create a file with a
root name > 8 characters will return an error on a Netware volume but
succeed on a local drive), but apart from these things, djgpp and
applications compiled in it seem to work fine.

If you could be more specific, perhaps send any troublesome code
along to me here and I'll compile/test it to see if it fails and let
you know the results.
