_farpokeb is written in inline assembly, see the header <sys/farptr.h>.  
Just use the assembly definition of _farpokeb from that header.

If the interrupt function only needs values in registers, using INT is 
fine.  Otherwise, look at the assembly source of __dpmi_int (it's in the 
v2/djlsr201.zip archive, file src/libc/dpmi/api/d0300.s) and use the same 
code in your program.
