/*
Subject: Exception problem with __dpmi_yield()

When I interrupt the following program with Control-C in my
Win95 DOS shell, I will get a protection error and my shell
painfully dies (try a few times).

You can avoid the crash by setting `__djgpp_hwint_flags |= 3;'.
Looks like a subtle bug in the exception handler to me.
