Please if you post something like this, then post the latest release, which
is 1.35. 1.34 has some nasty side effect which you can see as an
additional character in the first command.com session in OS/2 or MSDOS,
and which can cause more problems with 386bsd. This (d)effect is corrected in
OS-BS 1.35.
