Other notes:
 v2.1E and v2.4E attempts to run on a 8088, but cannot allocate enough memory regardless of how much conventional RAM is available.

v4.00E, v4.02E and v4.11E contains files that are incorrectly dated by exactly one year - this appears to be an error with Yutaka's system block being set incorrectly.
