Subject: DJGPP 2.01 and Novell DOS 7

I want to upgrade from DJGPP 1.12m3 to DJGPP 2.01 but, before I
embark on downloading several megabytes, I should like to make sure
that I'll be able to run the new release.  I use the Novell Dos 7 and
the FAQ has ominous warnings about bugs in the Novell DPMI handler.
It suggests disabling it and installing CWSDPMI instead: does this
actually work? (I have never enabled the DPMI services, since I have
no program requiring them.)

I remember reading here, some months ago, a message mentioning a
German site holding patches for DOS 7.  Since Novell has dropped DOS 7,
I should be most grateful for pointers to any source of	information
or support for this orphan OS, which I find quite superior to any
Microsoft version.
