This is ridiculous.  Borland has been making DOS compilers longer than they
have been making OS/2 compilers, so the version numbers differ.  The latest
BC++ 2.0 for OS/2 was released after BC++ 4.0 for DOS and uses the same
basic compiler.  Although the OS/2 version lags the DOS version, it does
not lag it as much as you seem to think.

Anyone who still believes in version numbers deserves to run Windows NT 3.1!
