DJGPP does use EMS, albeit not directly. If you think of CWSDPMI as
part of DJGPP, then it uses VCPI services to get into protected mode
and allocate memory for DJGPP programs. VCPI is an extension of EMS;
for example, if you say NOEMS on the memory manager command line, you
lose both EMS and VCPI.
