Dear List.s..

While debugging a problem with Jemm + our EBDA mover under 
FreeDOS, I found the following /sysinit/ quirks (Kernel.sys 2040) both
related to the "switches = /E" directive.

- " Switches = /E " without a size is silently *ignored*. In MSDOS, it works
as designed, i.e. the whole XBDA is translated down to an appropriately
sized "subsegment"..

- "SWITCHES =/E:bytes" *does* work as designed (not a bug!)

- However, in debug mode, "?SWITCHES = ..." is executed *always*
whether the operator answers Y or N when prompted ! This is a bug,
maybe yet some directoves other than Switches are affected too, to be 
checked. ?DEVICE =..." is OK in this respect .

Cheers,
