There's no functions named __djgpp_allocate_linear_memory and
__djgpp_map_physical_memory.  I can see __dpmi_allocate_linear_memory,
which is indeed defined by DPMI v1.0, and
__dpmi_physical_address_mapping that is part of DPMI v0.9 (and
supported by all known DPMI servers).

The only DPMI 1.0 servers I know about are the one bundled with the
386Max memory manager and the one built into OS/2.

However, I don't really understand why did you need to use
__dpmi_allocate_linear_memory.  Please explain that; it's possible
that you could use some other functions that *are* supported by DPMI
0.9.
