Okay, I tried again. Still put a temporary install in moderate RAM
disk, but this time I compiled from atop a big hard drive, so it
should have had plenty of space. However, I still get the error. This
is with r7, of course. I even tried "cwsdpmi -p -s-" in case for some
odd reason that would help. It didn't. My only other attempt was to
load "hdpmi32 -r", and then it worked fine (go figure). I don't know
and didn't check what "chkbig" or "chkset" are doing, but those two
tests are still failing (only) with CWSDPMI.

P.S. Here's an ugly sed script to more easily modify the pre-included
(broken?) DJGPP makefile to work properly. (Still ain't heard anything
from tm, oh well.)

#n
s/\/\*.*\*\///
s/\"/\\"/g
s/\x27/\\&/g
/>$/{
s/>//
s/=/= redir -o cc_vers.txt/
}
w makefile.dj
# use "HDPMI32 -r" for "hi chk_all" else chkbig and chkset will fail

P.P.S. Happy (early) Thanksgiving! CWS, obviously (?) feel free to
ignore this in favor of more important things, though indeed I find it
curious.
