The program will run on any CPU which is at least 386SX, but if it uses
floating point, you should bring the file emu387.dxe (from the bin/
subdirectory of your DJGPP installation) with the program.  This is the FP
emulator which will be dynamically loaded by your program if hardware FPU
isn't available.
