For me too.

Yes. It does work under TC, TC++, BC and OW (except, that with OW
current EMM386 sources are not yet Watcom-compatible). And this subsystem
based on kernel's subsystem, which prove its nature.

1. TC 2.01.
2. TC++ 1.01.
3. BC++ 3.1.
MD> How about OW?
OW runs, but not finish compilation - even if I replace "asm" by
"_asm", OW gives next complain for "mov dx,reg32.edx_low". And I not crazy,
to require immediately change EMM386 sources to be OW-compatible. But at
least, infrastructure is ready for OW.

Fine. Archive with build subsystem I re-send you again in next letter.
There also will be (again) present patch, to fix compatibility with TC/BC
(and it fixes bug in useful.c).
MD> But here's the deal: You have to make sure it works. It will still be
Of course. I do recheck its working right now - and all works with all
compilers. For example. log of compiling by TC:

There is only one issue: I don't know, how you use UPX to pack EMM386
executables, so "SET XPACK=" in (default) CONFIG.B is commented. If you show
me your command line, I add also this feature. Also, I hope, you review
compiler options (see turboc.cfg) and we synchronize them with your config
(which may give better resulting code).

I _read_ your posts about new UPX (and I know about your name in THANKS
from your message in group). But I not know details.
