I don't think this is the case.

I think I sent you all the relevant information back in November, and
you were eventually able to reproduce these problems on your machine.
I can dig out and resend the details, if you need them again.

Here's the last message you sent me about this:

    I can reproduce your error.  After the error it is very interesting.
    I see CWSDPMI loaded in memory, DPMI appears to be available, 
    cwsdpmi -u executes fine, but any djgpp image indicates there is no
    DPMI memory.

    So, it still thinks it's nested inside CWSDPMI, and no DPMI memory is
    available.  Fascinating.
