I tried setting int_during_io to on as per IBM's suggestion to use
mscdex in a win-os2 session (I am using beta 2.1).  When I tried to open
the session the system died to the point that I had to POWER OFF to get
it back up.  Is this a os/2 bug or am I missing something?

Also, I cannot print under win 3.1 in the same environment.  The system
hangs and I eventually get a GPF in os2user (I think).  I cannot even do
an alt-esc to get back.  Weird but very repeatible.

Suggestions anyone?
