I'm assuming its the DPMI 1.0 extensions (bad handling of NULL
pointers?) because using `cwsdpmi -x' stopped the page faults. Of
course, I just stubbed it with WDOS/X 0.97 to avoid having to manually
disable that every time.

Also, FYI to anyone else confused like me (heh), it seems to dislike
backslashes, so it only works if you do `p7zip a file.7z c:/utils/
dc.*' instead of doing it the normal DOS way.

P.S. Of course, using the Win32 console version of 7za.exe with HXRT
(http://www.japheth.de) also works well.   :-)
