I came across a couple of patches on SIMTEL for DOS 4.01.  I applied them,
but I'm not sure what they did (I should look a little closer at them).
Something about buffer handling.  I also saw in the documentation for
Lantastic that they recommend 3.3 over 4.01 for network use.

Does anyone have a list of the known bugs in DOS 4.01?
