It was me :)  It took some time to track this down.  hopefully, cliff
has received my bug report.(the problem with mail mentioned last week
probably prevented him from acknowledging my letters)

there is another major bug introduced in vserion c.  DPMI support
has become finicky.  If I load qdpmi.sys 1.0 with qemm.sys 6.04 executor
crashes after attempting to load any program.  Without qdpmi.sys ,
executor works with MAC executables loaded from anywhere, including
the utilities folder (which was mentioned by cliff as a problem).  Also
executor is completely broken under OS/2, failing with the same problem
as under DOS with qdpmi.sys, which i assume is again a problem with
DPMI support.
