   Perhaps _go32_dpmi_simulate_int() should abort if SP is not evenly
   divisible by four?  It's not clear that you ever want an SP *not*
   evenly divisible by four,

Since it is the real-mode stack you should expect it to be word-aligned,
but not necessarily dword-aligned.  Having a non-word-aligned stack
is not an error (unless it is close to 1), so I am not sure it should
be checked for.

A better (IMHO) solution would be to have a function, say,
_go32_dpmi_simulate_int_no_stack() for the normal use where
you don't supply a stack.
