Generally, i find that building far pointers from short integers is not
neccesary using a 32 bit flat memory model.  Remember that djgpp does
not use segmented memory, so the need to construct far pointers does not
exist.

Programming in djgpp is "more like" programming in unix then it is like
programming in 16-bit dos.  In a rough sort of way.
