I'm wondering if the new Microsoft C 6.0 will share the requirement with
previous versions that the SS and DS registers be identical even in the
large data models.

I work with a system, MPX, that implements lightweight processes within
a C program.  It implements the various stacks using malloc'd space (so
SS != DS in the large data models).

If anyone has info on this, please respond by mail.  I'll be glad to forward
or post a summary.
