Damn. Got problems already.

Couldn't build an overlayed DOS executable when OVERLAY_BUILD=1 was enabled
in the make file. But when that option was disabled two files are created:

  max.exe  (832 Kb)
  maxd.exe (1 Mb)

which is a bit confusing (ie. is max.exe overlayed or not (?)) ...

Dmake complains my version of WLIB can't support overlays but I'm using a
full installation of Watcom 11c. So my guess is a failed / missing option
or missing/incorrect environment variable set in the batch files I'm
supposed to run (snt.bat, setwc.bat, setwc11.bat, varnt.bat var2nt.bat etc)
.

The compile doesn't even get half as far when building the Win32 executables.

Squish also died.

Haven't tried the OS/2 builds.

What a show-stopper. I've lost motivation to fix it.

The installation & build instructures were so simple. But it didn't work.

Heh.
