1.12 is NOT released yet.  Soon.

I ran a test distribution last night.  Here are the statistics:

total size of zips:	32 Mb
number of floppies:	28 (1.2M)
uncompressed size:	200 Mb

I found some typos in the README.1ST file that need to be fixed, and a
few last minor bugfixes, and then it should be ready.

I got gdb to work in DPMI mode.  It needs the special sbrk() from
go32/ed/ed.c, but that sbrk needs to memset(ptr,0,len) to ensure that
the allocated memory is zero'd out.  This function goes in go32targ.c
in gdb.

I also added sed-1.18 to djgpp.  Sed-2.05 is much slower and uses much
more memory, so I used sed-1.18.
