With or without the DRI patches :) The official sources (and consequently the binaries produced) won't include the official DRI SID-entered patches. There have been attempts by third parties to include the patches in the source but I don't know if it results in a byte-identical image with officially patched binaries. What would be useful is a permanent fix for the DRI CP/M 3 random-read bug - which DRI was informed about but never addressed (?). An RSX that works around the bug can be found in CPM3BUG.LBR http://archives.scovetta.com/pub/walnut-creek/BEEHIVE/TESERACT/TESS-047.ZIP Text explaining when/why the bug occurs is included with ZPM3 - but sadly no detail as to how they fixed it. A simple executable which tests whether you have the random-read bug is here: http://dxforth.webhop.org/rrbug.zip
