Well, you are not alone. Since the
dosemu utilities were ported to so
called "coopthreads", various people
are reporting the weird problems
(but for me and most others everything
works OK).
I think sooner or later we'll have
to return back to the known-good
standalone-style tools:(
I was thinking about re-implementing
the coopthreads idea based on a
do_call_back() functionality, but at
least for the comcom it won't work.
I was asking the appropriate people
several times about dropping the comcom
(which itself makes more problems than
the coopthreads do) but so far there
were only a very inconclusive responses.

For now: type "make dosbin" which
will create a standalone-style tools
for you, which shouldn't have any
problems.
