This is a mistake.  Please download the DJGPP FAQ list (v2/faq210b.zip 
from the same place you get DJGPP) and read sections 18.2 and 18.3 
there.  The FAQ explains how to do this correctly.

(The problem is that a real-mode interrupt service needs a real-mode 
address below the 1MB mark, whereas your `str' buffer is always above 
1MB and is 32-bit protected-mode address.)
