Hi

I've recently been (trying) to do develop with DJGPP under DOSEmu, because
a) I'm not too experienced with interrupt handlers and that stuff and
C-A-Pgdn is a lot handier than the reset button and b) I'm in Linux anyway,
why exit?

Anyway, I find that make.exe and gcc.exe might segfault, depending on the
phases of the moons of Jupiter. I've read the Linux bit in the DJGPP faq,
and fiddling with the amounts of xms, ems and dpmi didn't help. I downloaded
the dpmi-djgpp-dosemu.mail or whatever from ftp.delorie.com, but it seems I
must have a version of dosemu where the patch has been applied. Any other
ideas on why it won't run reliably (it also seems to be slower than DOS w/
Smartdrv).

Thanks
Bruce
