So, it sounds like it's not going to get fixed anytime real soon. And the extended memory + low memory overhead are outrageous for QDPMI. Question for you guys: What are the reasons for not just disabling QDPMI outright? I use it for testing purposes, but actually use the free DPMI for day to day V2 development anymore. Sure, the free dpmi has some limitations currently, but most bugs I encounter are in QDPMI. Please send me the "must have" features to be able to replace QDPMI. Thanks.
