There's one FD incompatibility that's been there for some time: OpenWatcom wd /tr=rsi and wd /tr=cw appear to run just fine when you debug a program but a crash occurs (black screen, reset only way out, or invalid opcode) when you exit the debugger. This doesn't happen with MSDOS.
I'm taking the coward's way out here. This happens even without EMM386 or HIMEM, so it about has to be an incompatibility in the kernel. Which gets me off the hook and re-clears my personal checklist.
I could try and debug it anyway, but again plead ignorance of detailed kernel workings. A kernel developer would be the best victim..errr...person to track this incompatibility down. I did notice that DOSEMU also has, or had, a problem with child 4Ch termination under WD and that would be my best guess for a starting place on what's going on with WD and FreeDOS.
