1.11 obsoletes this by making the appropriate DPMI services available
at all times.  This functionality will be available in 1.11 through a
convenience API.  The function calls will be prototyped in <go32.h>:

/* returns number of times hit since last call. (zero first time) */
u_long _go32_was_ctrl_break_hit();
void   _go32_want_ctrl_break(int yes); /* auto-yes if call above function */
