I really don't understand what are you trying to accomplish, and why,
and I also don't understand what does ``none of those work'' means.

AFAIK, spawnx is a way to run a program aftr swapping most of the
parent program into extended memory.  You don't need this at all when
the parent is a DJGPP program, since it is already in the extended
memory, and its conventional memory footprint is very small.

If the parent program is NOT a DJGPP program, then this is a wrong
forum to ask these questions.
