Not exactly true, you can use the PMODE stub.  It's a smaller, faster
ring-0 only dpmi provider - but does not provide virtual memory.

Unfortunately I'm very busy at work, and I am having a hard time getting
time to even complete the testing on the r5 maintenance release.  There is
about 10 hours of fixing 64K real mode memory management issues to merge
the stub and CWSDPMI, and I just have not had the time.  Maybe over 
thanksgiving or christmas - thanksgiving is when I've ended up doing the
last 2 or 3 cwsdpmi releases over the last few years.

Hey, I'm lucky to read the newsgroup once a week anymore...
