If you are feeling frisky in dpmiexcp.c (in src/libc/go32)
line 629, change assembly lines so it looks like:

  asm volatile("movb $0x51, %%ah
                int  $0x21
                movb $0x50, %%ah
                int  $0x21

(so we don't pass the psp any more, we do a getpsp call to decide
what to set it to).  This is changing the first line and inserting
the second line.  This code would need to be linked in the exit 
code of the raw coff file go32-v2 calls.

This is the sequence I've been testing with the binary patches
and it works well so far in testing.  It also should be harmless
if the interrupt is not extended - since it would return/set the
real mode psp.
