1) for running your own programs, you need to SET EMU387=C:\V2\BIN\EMU387.DXE
   so it can find it.  This problem will be fixed in next beta release.
2) for running nested programs, you need to SET 387=N ... for some reason the
   autodetection code does not seem to work on nested programs.  I wrote the
   code, but I can't debug the problem 'cause all the boxes I have access to
   have FPUs.  It would be nice if someone with a crippled machine would
   check this out.
