i am assuming that in all the cases it works, a dynamically linked
function in the win is called (so it presumably redirects the request
from a 16-bit com.) why this is not the case with the djgpp-compiled
program is a mystery to me. i feel like i am shooting in the dark on
this one. i'll probably try to figure out what is going on, but i would
very much appreciate if anyone can suggest places/things to look at. (i
have already looked at the dosexec source, can't see anything weird but
that doesn't say too much.)
