I will see if this works with COMMAND.COM.

Alternatively, we could tell users to use "command /c config msdos",
but I dislike such solutions unless there's no better way.

Ouch, you are right.

I don't want to force use of USE_LISP_UNION_TYPE.  I will add
something to disable LSB tags, that could be something other platforms
might need (we had a discussion in the past, and I think there was an
agreement that there should be a general way to disable LSB tags).

Thanks.
