Of course anything's possible, but currently I'm not aware of any DPMI
host that screws up SIGINT handling in v2 programs.  CWSDPMI works OK
(what'd you expect?), and so are QDPMI and Windows.  If anybody knows
about specific DPMI host and specific case where ^C doesn't work, please
tell so.  The only subtle aspect of ^C (as I wrote in another message in
this thread) is that when you switch stdin to binary mode (e.g., with 
`setmode'), you have to call `__djgpp_set_ctrl_c' to cause ^C generate 
SIGINT.
