I think someone said that "-nopentium" has no effect on a 486.
Confusingly, the word "Pentium" appears on the console in any case,
whatever you do.

I have been unable to do remote debugging at any speed other than 9600.
Nothing I do on the host seems to affect the speed used by the host, so
I have to put "-comspeed 9600" as an argument to I forget which module
on the target. Then it works, more or less. If anyone has a solution,
I'd be grateful.
