Posting a summary of the known problems might inspire someone to fix them.
For example, it was only from a private message that I found out that go32
left the control-break and divide by zero vectors hanging on exit.  After I
crashed os/2 verifying this, I looked at the problem and posted some
suggestions which inspired someone else to post other suggestions, and now
this problem has been fixed in maint4.

Regarding control-break and oemacs, I don't see anything bad happening
provided I call _go32_want_cntl_break(1).  DPMI problems, however, are not
something I'm likely to be able to help with.
