Even when using "/MSG /P"? So what is the implication, that there's a
memory leak in FreeCOM somewhere? I wouldn't be too surprised.

Testing an old release for comparison? Why not test 0.82pl3 from SF.net?

https://sourceforge.net/projects/freedos/files/FreeCOM/082pl3%20%28use%20xmsswap%20for%20386%2B%20PC%29/

But yes, FreeCOM has various bugs and needs to be cleaned up and fixed
(eventually), but so far nobody has stepped up to do it.

You mean "SET" within FDCONFIG.SYS??

So "all my path variables are intact" means there is probably a memory
corruption issue somewhere??
