In addition, if the program was compiled with DJGPP v2.02 or older, or used
the emulator from any version before v2.03, you should know that the
emulation code there had a few grave problems, in particular on Windows.  So
I suggest to make sure that v2.03 is used.

No, it doesn't refuse to work, it just prints a warning message.
