Resisting the urge to put "operating system" in quotes :-)

This kind of nonsense would not have been possible on *nix, OS/2 or VMS back in the early 90s. (written as somebody who had to write a fair amount of C code back then for such things in addition to the scourge of Win16)

Still, hats off for debugging such a goofy work-around with a poorly chosen place for setjmp() to receive a longjmp().
