The environment variable EMU387 is needed to run FPU requiring programs which
aren't in %djdir%/bin (which is probably only your apps).  Putting 387=N in
djgpp.env should be functionally the same as putting it as a DOS env variable
for this purpose.

But anyway, code was added to beta 2 to supposedly fix this, but I guess with
nested programs it's still not right yet.  The problem is the developer who
did this work (me) doesn't have any FPU-less machines to test it on, so I
tested it with 387=n on my box.  Someone with a real FPU-less box is going
to have to do some work on this to find my bug.
