Hmmm, I added the memory locking routines without fully testing them.
Windows95 DPMI must have some bugs in it then, because I know it works under
windows 3.11 and CWSDPMI.  I'll add a check for windows in the code within
a few weeks.  If you can't wait, you can remove all of the memory locking
code so that it will work under win95.  Be warned though that if you are low
on memory and the code for a proccess gets swapped out, the program will
SEGV.  A quick hack would be to check for the environment variable 
"winbootdir" and see if it exists.  If it does, don't lock any memory.

That M$ ad that says "where do you want to go today" should say
"Where does Bill Gates want you to go today?" ;)
