You cannot do what you want to do in general (which is not the same as
what you said you want to do BTW). The difference with flat-mode
pointers and how this relates to real-mode addresses, and how to convert
them, if possible, is described in the FAQ which you can get from the
same source as you got DJGPP itself..

Regards.
