Rich .. 

This reply is being written remotedly on a FP17 box.  The file is:

   10-10-03   3:57p    137469           0  DOSCALL1.DLL

But watch out!  Here is a perfect example of how things move forward in this 
critical world.  On the R40 with the brand new install of the MCP2 latest and 
Fix Pack XRC_-05 that is on it you find:

   12-29-04  11:15a    137601           0  DOSCALL1.DLL

Now what you have to understand is that all this does tie together to 
applicable kernel levels, as produced in installs and Fix Packs.  It also can 
be involved in further kernel development after the latest Fix Pack.  There is 
a discussion now going on more or less in the forums about additional failures 
in the DLL, even now.   Form memory here remotely, that issue is of focus on 
the latest Mozilla 1.1.8-10-11 operations.  I've got a pile of failures with 
even this .DLL in research work on the MOZ stuff here.  

And if my memory is correct, though I personally don't know this for sure.  
There are at least sixteen internally merged DLL's in PMMERGE.DLL, which is 
closely related to all this too!

Even, as I recall this remotely, People running the latest XRC_05 on MCP2 are 
seeing related failures that may involve DOSCALL1.DLL and it has been advocated 
by some, that you may need to retro the latest PMMERGE.DLL to stop some of this 
instability!

    7-16-03   6:51p   1269677          49  PMMERGE.DLL

That's the file on the FP17 box this is being written on.  Note that on the 
installed XRC-05 R40 debug box it is:

   12-29-04   7:33p   1270499          49  PMMERGE.DLL

See the probme as all this comes to focus?

And .. If you want to see the retrograde PMMERGE.DLL, you'll have to wait until 
I can get to stabilized XRC-05 boexes in the relay rack pile of big hardware 
boxes to show you the comparison between the variations there!

Does any of this help?
