That fits with my information.  "Undocumented DOS, 2nd Edition" calls
it the "business update" and says the BDOS number was 1071h.  (DR DOS 6
was 1067h, Novell DOS 7 was 1072h.)

Incidentally, whoever mailed me asking for the April '92 patch kit:
Sorry, it bounced.  If you still want it, write me again and I'll
arrange to make it available via FTP.
