It's gone, all the functionality is in the micro-stub, 32-bit code, or
the DPMI provider.

There was a bug in beta 1 with coprocessor detection for nested programs
(GCC's children).  Beta 2 did not rebuild GCC and friends with the fixed
beta 2 libc, so showed the same problems.  It should be fixed in the next
beta; a workaround is "SET 387=N".  EMU387.DXE is the dynamically loaded
FPU emulator for V2; the symbol EMU387 should point to it (also fixed in
the next beta) if it's not in the same directory as the binary being run.
The GO32 environment variable is not used at all in V2.
