Malloc() has a 2GB limit since the int size is a _signed_ integer. The only place I seem to be able to find CWSDPMI r6 is a Czech site: <http://www.volny.cz/rayer/programm/programm.htm#DJGPP> <http://www.volny.cz/rayer/programm/cwsdpmi6.zip> PMODE/DJ can be got from one of the mirrors listed at <http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/getting.html> under v2misc/pmode13b.zip Obviously, DJGPP has been pulled from all of the SimtelNet mirrors, though some still retain the djgpp.README file.
