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.
