That should probably be "DF" instead of "58" here. Not sure why I didn't catch that (or why it mostly worked without it). That was the whole point, to uppercase it!

 00146023: 8063FFDF   and byte [ebx-1],0xDF

And, of course, this changes the md5sum, so here's the newer one:

==newemacs.md5===================
51a76c475ccfc50d341cee9990655808 *emacs.exe
==newemacs.md5===================

BTW, here's a quick sed operation to avoid the compile problem when using FreeDOS' FreeCOM (untested but should work, heh):

==fcomfix.bat====================
@echo off
if not exist mainmake.v2 set MOO=msdos
gsed -i "s/subst.*shell.*)/CURDIR)/" %MOO%.\mainmake.v2 %MOO%.\sed*.inp
set MOO=
==fcomfix.bat====================

P.S. I still feel like I need to kick the tires a lot more. I guess I'll keep playing with it, and see what I can find out.
