Talk to Nancy's wizard; he's the one that successfully patched the 16-bit
Telegard DOS EXE to work correctly (the one I have running on my board).

Nope, never did.  Discovered it was a problem with OS/2 Warp 4.52's kernel;
I could have backed down the board to Warp 4 and patched it, but I was too
lazy and just switched BBS software. :P
