V2's goal was posix compatibility.  At the compile and link level,
except for serial line functions, it's 100% compatible.  At the
runtime level, there are a few pieces of functionality that are not
implemented, because they're just too hard in DOS.  Signals are
probably one of them.  Fork() is another.

I suspect with time and effort, these final pieces can be dealt with
as well.
