One thing that is important with Microsoft C is to erase the link program that
comes with DOS.  Yes I know they are both written by the same company but
if it finds the DOS link in the path before the one that comes with C you
will have all sorts of funny problems.  This one used to bite me every time
I upgraded or reinstalled DOS on my system.
