Whew! I'm not crazy, and this rules out VMware. It also breaks for me
on Win2K. I'll try the Win95 compatibility mode, but until I get to it,
you might want to see if this shows any significant or useful

I ran it on my foo.exe and noticed that some of the file reads got extra
garbage bytes in them (IIRC), but I didn't think to try it on parl.exe.
