Why are you setting r.x.ss and r.x.sp to zero prior to the 7303h call?
According to DJGPP's libc.info, __dpmi_int() automatically takes care of
them.

  r.x.ss=0;
  r.x.sp=0;

What happens without those lines?

Also according to DJGPP's libc.info, one should use the following, if you
need to set ss, sp, or flags:

 ___dpmi_int_sp
 ___dpmi_int_ss
 ___dpmi_int_flags

Hmm... __dpmi_int_flags...  It seems I missed that.

The file src\libc\d0300_z.S has the __dpmi_int() routine in assembly, if you
want to look at it.
