Here's something we just discovered ... maybe others have
already found this, but it isn't all that obvious.

When you install BC++ for OS/2, you get an "extra" directory.  Inside
this is bcc2.exe.  This is a 32-bit ONLY version of the compiler ... it
will not thunk 16 bit calls.  If you're doing only 32-bit code, this
might be a better "base" compiler to use. We've found it generates much
better, er, "less buggy" code ;)

.. Hey Bill, I've upped my standards to OS/2.  Now UP YOURS!
