There is a bug in the NT DPMI implementation which scroggs the real mode stack
under certain real mode callback conditions.  I have NT on the development
system at home, know the exact bug, but was hoping the release NT would fix
said bug.  I found out about 2 weeks ago that it didn't fix the problem.
I know a potential workaround - save the stack and restore it (uggh) which
should allow DJGPP binary images to run under NT.  It's on my work list.
So far I have found so many bugs in the NT C libraries and include files I would
rather run my DJGPP binaries if I can make it work.  If you are really lucky
it will be in V1.11 GO32 ... :-)
