I did have to make a couple changes to the OS/2(EMX) makefile in order to get
everything working.  Specifically, even though gcc_bcmp.c is copied into the
RTS directory, it is never referenced in the makefile. (MakeHPFS.RTS)  It was
only after I tried to compile some code that apparantly needed _gcc_bcmp()
that I noticed the problem.  So I had to go back and edit the Makefile.

Or did I do something wrong?  I couldn't find any reference to gcc_bcmp.c/.o
in the MakeFAT.RTS file either.

I also experienced confusion over which version of Make to use.  INSTALL says
to use nmake, but README.EMX says to use dmake.

(Sorry if this has been addressed before, I just recently joined the list..)
