Hi Workers!

I saw this `ix86-pc-msdosdjgpp' in some recent posts. My only
question is the 'msdos' part. Why must this name contain 'ms'?
DJGPP works on other DOSes doesn't it?

I just ask this question because when I ported perl, and put
osname=msdos in the configure script, someone asked 
a similar question from me. And now perl uses 'dos-djgpp' ;-)
