We'll I checked behaviour of protoize from my last build of GCC-2.95.2
I uploaded to ftp.delorie.com. Unfortunatelly I didn't do it earlier.

	DOSEMU 0.99.13 under Linux (no LFN):
		protoize doesn't work at all and is not getting far enough to
	       rename old file

		unprotoize fails to rename file. When I hexeditted exe file to
		append "_save" instead of ".save" it worked

	WIN95:
		Both protoize and unprotoize doesn't work at all (infinit loop)

So if broken protoize.exe and unprotoize.exe is problem serious 
enough, then I'll have to upload update when it will be available.
