The WINDEBUG.DLL file that comes with windows v3.0 looks specifically for a
OS version number, and only runs under v3.0.  Borland licensed WINDEBUG.DLL
from Microsoft and the problem followed.  Borland did put up a new WINDEBUG.DLL
on the windows 3.1 beta testers forum on CI$, but the b/t's are not allowed
to distribute it.  :(  [The above was explained to me by a friendly winbtdev
sysop]. 

Soo... there *is* a fix, a new WINDEBUG.DLL.  When will it come out?  Dunno.
I would definitely expect it in the windows v3.1 SDK, to ship in 4-6 weeks.
It will probably be in the w3.1 update from Borland as well, shipping in
4-6 weeks (sigh).  I have heard a rumor they may release a quick update,
containing a new windows.h file (implib it yourself I supose) and a updated
WINDEBUG.DLL.  This is just a rumor however.
