I experience the same problems (with streambuf.h) when trying to compile in
Window 98's MS-DOS mode. I would dearly love to be able to do all my
compilation without Windows loaded because the program depends centrally on
timing routines which get querked under a pre-emptive scheduling o/s. Is it
possible to compile and run program under DOS?

Running under DOS crashes the program in __crt1_startup before main even
starts! What's a boy to do?
