     Chances are, compiling GO32 under the latest version of Borland C++
will also work.  I've noticed that some bugs present in GO32 go away
when compiled with the latest Borland offering.

     However, the problem is that Turbo C 2.0 (an ancient version) is
the *NEWEST* version that can be used to compile GO32, due to licensing
constraints.  Newer versions of Turbo/Borland C/C++ cannot be used to
create "competing compilers"; hence, Turbo C 2.0 must be used.

     Does the MSC 5.1 license let MSC be used to create "competing
compilers"?
