Here are results from a Windows 98 machine with one disk partitioned
into several 2GB FAT16 partitions and one 20GB disk with a single
FAT32 partition:

 C: (FAT16): Total size is exactly what Windows says in My Computer
	     Available size is exactly as My Computer
 F: (FAT16): Total size is exactly as in My Computer
	     Available size is exactly as in My Computer
 D: (FAT32): Total size is exactly what Windows says in My Computer
	     Available size is exactly as in My Computer
 I: (CDROM): Total size is about 1MB more than what My Computer says
 I: (Audio): Total size is about 600KB more than My Computer

I compared the results for CDROMs with df.exe, and df.exe prints the
same numbers.  So there's no regression here.

Note that on my system I clearly see the problem with 7303h (whereby
the reported results are limited to 2GB) when a TSR which hooks Int
21h is loaded in the DOS box.  So I think we need to put this caveat
into libc.info, for all functions which use 7303h.

I also tested on DOS 5.0 with a few FAT16 partitions; the results were
exactly as CHKDSK says.
