[Emm386 reports 32M, Qemm reports 80M]

Oh dear!
I thought this would happen, but we could not test it, as there isn't a
machine with that much memory in our posession.

Does himem.sys report more than 64M?

If so, use the GATEA20 option in emm386, and get it to sit on top of himem.sys
This is an ugly solution, so you might stick with QEMM instead.

Alternatively, you could get himem.sys from Win95 which _should_ work, and
get our emm386 to ride on top of that.

I've put this in the DRDOS bug database, so something will be done about
it.. ..eventually..
