The documentation (addendum.doc) of TbScanX, a resident anti virus 
checker which is part of the ThunderByte AV utilities, mentions the 
following option:

    -   Added a new undocumented option 'xmsseg=<hexnum>' (xs). You can
        use this option to specify on which address the temporary XMS
        swap buffer should be located while files are being copied. The
        default address is 6000h. If you experience troubles using the
        XMS option, try if this option can solve it. Recommended values
        are from 2000h to 8800h (default is 6000h). Let us know if this
        helps and which value you use.

Is this of any concern for go32.exe?
If so, to which value should it be set?
Is the correct choice dependent on the memory manager?
If so, what to do for plain himem.sys (8MB physical RAM)?
