If you are working with DPMI with V1.x, SET 387=N is ignored, and the emulator
can't be loaded anyway.  With V2.x this is fixed and you can also link in
the emulator if you want to.  If you weren't in DPMI, GO32 is still pretty
smart about finding an EMU387, so it may have found one anyway.  The only way
to know is to time a heavy floating section.
