I need to check 0x400 and 0x401.  For those, the code should do,
but I would rather test with a binary than search the code.
For testing nesting of the DPMI host, I could use a binary.
I'll make do.  I got much of it to compile, but I was starting
to come across compiler errors I've *never* seen before ...
Now, I'm guessing very few people, if any, have a binary.
So, it might not even matter.
