DJGPP is compatible with FAT32, but it doesn't yet support extended 
functionality of FAT32-specific DOS functions.  For example, library 
function `statfs' won't report correct info about FAT32 drives larger 
than 2GB, `lseek' cannot use offsets larger than 2GB, etc.

As usual, volunteers are welcome to add this support (the info is 
available in Ralph Brown's Interrupt List).
