I had the same problems.  Even though I followed the Borland manuals
exactly when it came to the passed parameters and return address on the
stack.  After fiddling around I got it to work by stacking these things
differently.  I am running Turbo Pascal 3.03a on an XT.  I will dig
up this code and post the relevant sections.
