There are actually very few functions which behave differently from what
a DOS C programmer would expect.  The correct behavior is usually documented
in the library reference; if it isn't, it's a documentation bug and should
be corrected.  That's what beta review period is for.  We didn't think about
``here are functions...'' page yet (a good idea, IMHO).  Maybe you could
browse through the v2.0 library docs and compile such a list?
