This is what I thought. I don't have a compiler that can produce 16-bit
code.
I ported kpop.c to 32 bits, which was basically just removing the
__loadds and far identifiers.
My biggest worry is that the buffers passed to DosMonReg cannot cross
a 64k boundary. I'm hoping there is a compiler switch I can use to
ensure this does not happen, but it will be my luck that it is not that
easy...
