  @file{tests/libclink} no longer looks for DJGPP V1.
  
! @file{emu387.dxe} has been rebuilt to reflect fpatan fixes
  @findex emu387
  
  @file{mcount.c} no longer writes to the mono monitor.  This had caused
  seg faults when profiling.
  @findex mcount.c
  
! You can now "symlink" to files with 8 character base names (like
! 12345678.exe) @file{stub.asm} assumed al was zero when it wasn't
