Ok, I've added code to detect Windows and if windows is present, I
install a real mode handler instead of a protected mode one: it seems to
work (at least the interrupt handler gets called).
Thanks for the hint.

Now, I've installed the real mode handler using the
_go32_dpmi_allocate_real_mode_callback_iret function and not as you
suggest in the FAQ. Are there really penalties if I do so ?
Do you have some pointers to code snippet which do what you suggest?
