I just tried with open() and EMX. I get 40 files. I expect open uses DosOpen
internally -- I need to get the library source code -- and there is a table
somewhere.  I tried DosOpen but it crashes -- one problem for sure is that the
documentation I have for DosOpen doesn't match the function prototype in
OS2EMX.H, so I'm probably passing some garbage arguments.
