For what it's worth, WinNT was recently biting us because it didn't
support the standard INT 2F BIOS call to read CD-ROMs.  It just
silently returned after doing nothing...with the carry clear, which
would normally indicate success.  Woohoo.

Something similar might be happening here, I dunno.

I'm willing to run whatever tests you want, although I haven't run gdb
under DOS in a really long time (I assume it works under NT?)
