	If it means anything, I occassionally get this bug with DOS 2.0,
except it only happens during a Ctrl-C while printing, followed later by
the random hang.  Who knows, maybe 3.2 made the special case bug into a
general bug.  I always blamed it on my printer interface. Is there any
screwy hardware floating around?
