Waiting sometimes works, but waiting alone does produce a fix.

Someone will investigate and propose a fix, hopefully.  In this case,
Russ is already looking into it.

With free software, the boilerplate answer is: "Sooner if you help."

This case is extra-complicated, because none of the core developers
can reproduce the problem, as we do not have a copy+license of a
DOS-based windows.  We are depending on a new developer/contributor.

I really hope we can produce a fixed update some time soon, but
otherwise we may have to redraw "support" for dos based windowses.

Sorry,
Jan.
