I am compiling and running it as an OS/2 program, not in a VDM. It is
compiled with the same libraries for both 1.3 & 2.0 (LLIBFOR7.LIB -
the 16-bit protected mode large-model library that comes with MS-FORTRAN
5.0). Without division by 0 I have no problems with codes compiled
with that library. Exactly the same executable crashes 2.0 with "internal
processing error...", but running as it should (i.e. with the run time
error message) when I boot with a 1.3 floppy. It has been such a nuisance
that I replaced 2.0 with 1.3 on my disk, but I would rather work with
2.0.
