Beware - the pmode stub does not support virtual memory, so programs bound
with it will not run in many low memory environments.  CWSDPMI is configured
such that a DJGPP image should run with as little as 100K of DOS memory and 
no extended memory free.  If the memory is improperly configured, an image
won't even run with the pmode stub.  To make the image more universal, you
would be better off with a standard stub and CWSDPMI.
