What do you want to know? AFAIK, NT simply leaks DPMI resources, that
is, it doesn't free all of them in nested DPMI programs. So after a
while you are left with no selectors or no DPMI memory.
I don't think anyone knows more than what the FAQ already says,
because we don't have any access to NT sources.
