    Depends on which function you call. Since we're talking about DOS, I'll
    limit myself to 2F/11xx and 2F/12xx. The former depends on the network redirector, the latter on which subfunction. The majority of the 2F/12xx calls are reentrant, but those which perform equivalents of non-reentrant
    DOS calls aren't. They get around DOS's non-reentrancy by using a different stack frame, but there's only one alternate stack frame....

    Oh contrairuh, I think it's touching they want to help (even as you say
    it's all a bit late now). But so is DOS Programming (retro-types
    (myself included) excluded).
