Not quite (yet). However, Joshua James Turpen <44699 AT ef DOT gc DOT maricopa DOT edu>
just gave me some code he wrote for direct manipulation of the LDT and
GDT (and IDT, I think) that he's using to turbo charge LWP.  I'll be
having a look at it to see what I can do about generalizing it (I need
it as a workaround to the Windows 3.1x cli bug).

BTW, why do you want call gates?

Bill
