I noticed that too and I have a clue of what's the cause, but DOS386's port is really a very badly designed hack, so I won't help. He has moved a lot of files around, made source code changes w/o #ifdefs, there's no Makefile (or build.bat), no GNU Diff file, ... Of course, I plan to fix my build and release clean archives.
