I had trouble with the .swap line in the tbcplus.mak crashing my machine.
Could never figure out why.  I even tried it on a system with no TSRs.

I have a 286 with 1meg memory, the top 384k I normally use for ramdrive.
When compiling gs, I removed the ramdrive and added the -Qx switch to the
end of CCFLAGS definition.  That reduced compile time from 60 minutes to
34 minutes!  If you have extra memory, you may wish to investigate this.
