You should read the DJGPP FAQ list (v2/faq210b.zip from the same place
you get DJGPP).  This question is discussed in section 18.4 there.
For example, here's one way to peek at the byte at D000:0000 (please
do NOT use this code verbatim without reading that section in the FAQ,
because it describes other techniques which might be more suitable to
your application):

	#include <go32.h>
	#include <sys/farptr.h>

	unsigned char first_byte = _farpeekb (_dos_ds, 0xd0000);
