I've found that OS/2 is much better about this than DOS is.  I've
found that everything fprint()ed before a fflush() in OS/2 is found in
the dump file after the program aborts.  In DOS, even fflush()ing
doesn't help.  Since most of my programming is still for other people's
DOS machines, I have come to greatly appreciate this feature of OS/2.
