I hate to be a pain in the ***(*) about this, but how exactly do you tell
windows to give the application 5M of DPMI memory?  I've checked into
my memory configuration, and I have 2-4M physical and 2-4M virtual
memory available in windows when I did some testing, but I do not know
the mechanism that windows uses to give this to the application.
