Tested.  The problem is indeed solved.

DJ, I think we can replace unzip32.exe on SimTel with this new version.

Is this the reason that the binary is now 20KB larger?  I didn't know the 
v2.03 library is so much more bloated.  Perhaps you could look into this.

What version of Binutils?  Can it be that the new version was built with 
as.exe that places labels into the object files?

Btw, while testing this version, I got error messages when I tried to run 
unzip32 like this:

	env TZ='' unizp32 whatever

The error messages said "Error: could not allocate page table memory", 
and they seem to come from cwsdpmi.  I assume that's because unzip32 has 
PMODE/DJ bound into it.

Charles, you once wrote that this can be handled with CWSPARAM.  I tried 
that, but came to a conclusion I didn't know what exactly to change, and 
how.  Could you elaborate?  Thanks.
