I already revectored that to the new IRET handling routine when you
mentioned it earlier on list. CMC is slightly neater code, but not enough
to go back in and goof with it right now. Whole thing is probably a
theoretical change, I'm not sure the other flag status would affect any
code running under DOS.

No, doesn't look right. A20 handling was turned off, plus not modifying BL
on A20 enable/disable is against my XMS version 3.0 spec. I put A20
handling in there to work with EXEPACK so it's not going away without a
good reason. And BL must be set to known non-error value or else it can
inadvertently fail the function. The A20 emulation remapping always succeeds.

I mean your changes get their own subdirectory, as was offered. You can
branch it off of SOURCE\EMM386 or whatever you want, but you cannot
commingle with existing source, binaries, etc. other than a DOC.

Inside the package. What good would putting it separately on the ftp
server do? That's not a distribution change, that's a site change.

Testing commences after this e-mail, unless I trip and fall into bed
first. Could happen.
