It's not easy to produce a single executable that works on plain DOS,
any version of Windows, and emulators such as DOSEmu from GNU/Linux.
DPMI, the DOS Protected Mode Interface, is the API used by the DJGPP
programs to run 32-bit protected-mode code on top of 16-bit OS, and
still be able to invoke 16-bit real-mode system calls without crashing
the OS.
Unfortunately, DPMI doesn't give any control of memory allocation
strategy or its alignment.
I asked the other DJGPP developers for ideas of why this happens on XP
and how to overcome it.
