5 open, 35 closed fixed, 36 closed for some other more silly reason

BUG Nr: 0
Summary: Time machines are fun
Status: Closed: NOT a BUG
Note: Very true, nevertheless: NOT a BUG

BUG Nr: 1
Summary: Turn it into a JLM
Status: Closed: NOT a BUG

BUG Nr: 2
Summary: Turn it into a JLM
Status: Closed: NOT a BUG, Duplicate of #1

BUG Nr: 3
Summary: There is XRAY
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: Thanks for pointing, it indeed does register INT $21 calls, but is
      obsolete, not free, not open source, and probably not done with FASM

BUG Nr: 4
Summary: Your crappy debugger is faulty
Status: Closed: INVALID

BUG Nr: 5
Summary: Turn it into a JLM
Status: Closed: NOT a BUG, Duplicate of #1 and #2

BUG Nr: 6
Severity: BLOCKER
Summary: Single-stepping with JDEBUG into UI21DEB causes a mess
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: UI21DEB is not designed for being single-stepped (fixed: RTFM, now
      mentioned) uninstall or disable UI21DEB (fixed: now works) before
      single-stepping into DOS kernel, also now any attempt to single-step
      into UI21DEB will hang the "other" debugger securely preventing
      the "mess" to occur

BUG Nr: 7
Summary: Turn it into a JLM
Status: Closed: NOT a BUG, Duplicate of #1 , #2 and #5

BUG Nr: 8
Summary: Uninstall
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 9
Summary: Your TSR does no longer find itself after other TSR hacks INT $21
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 10
Summary: Hot NEWS: MS-DOS updated
Status: Closed: INVALID
Note: Recheck the license, release date and your clock

BUG Nr: 11
Summary: Hot NEWS: World for MS-DOS released
Status: Closed: INVALID, Duplicate of #10
Note: Again: Recheck the license, release date and your clock

BUG Nr: 12
Summary: Use IIISP
Status: Open
Note: I don't see this as urgent at all

BUG Nr: 13
Summary: I'll probably never use any of your products
Status: Closed: UNREPRODUCTABLE
Note: Your fault that I'm not going to debug :-D

BUG Nr: 14
Submitted by: Eric Auer
Severity: BLOCKER
Summary: DOSEMU is great for debugging
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: Thanks for pointing, the truth is out. Now UI21DEB is available so
      10 GiB of Linux bloat, 4 CPU cores per 4 GHz and crippled DOG-EMU
      fake are no longer needed for debugging of DOS kernels, TSR's/addons
      and applications, now true DOS and 8086 CPU are sufficient ;-)

BUG Nr: 15
Summary: FCB kill should return AL=1 instead of AL=2
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 16
Summary: Turn it into a JLM
Status: Closed: NOT a BUG, Duplicate of #1 , #2 , #5 , and #7

BUG Nr: 17
Submitted by: ouadji
Severity: BLOCKER
Summary: Virtual: beautiful directive
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: Thanks, started using it :-)

BUG Nr: 18
Summary: MS-DOS 7.1 is IMHO heavily superior
Status: Closed: INVALID
Note: It doesn't even exist

BUG Nr: 19
Summary: FreeDOS isn't 100% compatible, MS-DOS is better
Status: Closed: INVALID, Duplicate of #18
Note: No need to waste further time with searching for, testing or even
      developping of something that tries to be 100% compatible to
      this reported MS-DOS 7.1. The only thing able to replace the
      (inexistent) 100% comatible MS-DOS 7.1 is the (inexistent, but
      who cares) 100% compatible MS-DOS 7.1 itself of course and
      nothing else. :-D

BUG Nr: 20
Summary: Turn it into a JLM
Status: Closed: NOT a BUG, Duplicate of #1 , #2 , #5 , #7 and #16

BUG Nr: 21
Summary: Call results
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: Not perfect but should be sufficient for now

BUG Nr: 22
Summary: Poor memory management, low buffer capacity
Status: Open

BUG Nr: 23
Summary: Unhog environment
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 24
Summary: Waiting for a really cool TSR
Status: Closed: UNREPRODUCTABLE
Note: Check out new version of UI21DEB, if still not satisfied just
      continue waiting

BUG Nr: 25
Summary: Turn it into a JLM
Status: Closed: NOT a BUG, Duplicate of #1 , #2 , #5 , #7 , #16 and #20

Status: Closed: NOT a BUG
Note: Thanks for supplying test stuff and making my UI21DEB more useful,
      I "fixed" most of your kernel bugz ;-)

BUG Nr: 27
Summary: Some new DOS TSR and driver development is much appreciated
Status: Closed: NOT a BUG
Note: Thanks, OTOH please note that UI21DEB is a deBUGGER, and not a driver

BUG Nr: 28
Submitted by: Japheth
Summary: DOS users apparently don't like to wipe other people's ass'es
Status: Closed: NOT a BUG
Note: Right, nevertheless: NOT a BUG

BUG Nr: 29
Summary: Turn it into a JLM
Status: Closed: NOT a BUG, Duplicate of #1 , #2 , #5 , #7 , #16 , #20 and #25

BUG Nr: 30
Summary: Ex-FAT released
Status: Closed: INVALID
Note: The "released" archive you pointed is quasi-empty (why the hell
      didn't you check before boasting ???), there is no spec inside at all,
      it's infected by Macro-Soft's copyright and patents. Nevertheless,
      if you are able to extract anything useful for a DOS user or
      developer from it, feel free to go ahead and start using or
      implementing this "former-FAT" :-D

BUG Nr: 31
Summary: Prefer no uninstall even in the next version if it just did the
Status: Closed: INVALID
Note: See #8, it's fixed now

Note: Thanks ... note that UI21DEB can't use XMS for now, see also #22

BUG Nr: 38
Summary: A Fatal Exception 0D occurred in VMM32.VXD and this is very bad
Status: Closed: INVALID
Note: Just don't use it ;-)

BUG Nr. 39
Summary: Write report into something more visible or durable than just RAM
Status: Open
Note: I'm not going to write into a file nor onto the screen, both is ways
      too obstrusive. Feel free to submit non-obstrusive code for writing
      to the serial or parallel port, keybord LED's or something else
      suitable for this purpose.

BUG Nr: 40
Submitted by: Taladafil
Summary: Buy cheap \/|@gr@
Status: Closed: INVALID

BUG Nr: 41
Summary: FFF - fixed faulty filenames are not reported
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 42
Summary: URGENT: My DGJPP application doesn't work on my Vista64 PC
Status: Closed: INVALID
Note: FYI: DGJPP is unable to create native Win32 binaries, even less
      Win64 binaries, just use MinGW instead, BTW, even worse, MinGW-32
      is very sufficient

BUG Nr: 43
Summary: My DGJPP application causes massive spurious disk accesses
Status: Closed: INVALID
Note: BUG of DGJPP's "gettimeofday" function, create file I/O report with
      UI21DEB or check included example, and submit it to the maintainers,
      or avoid DGJPP

BUG Nr: 44
Summary: Don't write directly into the IVT
Status: Closed: UNREPRODUCTABLE

BUG Nr: 45
Submitted by: DGJPP BUGZILLA
Summary: Fuck off spammer
Status: Closed: INVALID
Note: Apparently DGJPP is bug-free ;-)

BUG Nr: 46
Summary: Useless "ES:" prefix bloat
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 47
Summary: Useless junk (calling code) saved into UI21DEB.DAT
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 48
Summary: Useless code kept resident
Status: Open, Related to #22
Note: Negligible with current version, see also #22, will get more
      interesting one day when #22 is resolved

BUG Nr: 49
Summary: Secret return from spawn
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 50
Summary: Reduce reentrancy counter size down to 1 bit
Status: Closed: UNREPRODUCTABLE

BUG Nr: 51
Summary: Brew an error if reentrancy counter attempts to sink below ZERO
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 52
Severity: BLOCKER
Summary: Reentrancy handling code is faulty
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: Thrown away and rewritten

BUG Nr: 53
Summary: Turn it into a JLM
Status: Closed: NOT a BUG, Duplicate of #1 , #2 , #5 , #7 , #16 ,
        #20 , #25 and #29

BUG Nr: 54
Summary: Anonymous buggy applications
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 55
Summary: Create "InUI21DEB" and skip your code if it is already set
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: That's pretty silly and pretty exactly what the 2009-Feb version
      tried to do and I have really no idea how it could work at all.
      "Skip" would mean simply miss the reentering calls (there are such:
      spawn, criminal errors, background TSR's, ...), so YES, this is the
      absolute NO-GO idea for UI21DEB. :-D Nevertheless, now it's fixed,
      see also #52, nothing is skipped, reentrancy counter is kept, no
      "InUI21DEB" exists and reentering calls are processed as well.

BUG Nr: 56
Summary: BUG
Status: Closed: INVALID

BUG Nr: 57
Summary: Debugs itself
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: Selfdebugging mostly gone, saving DAT file not recorded anymore,
      nor exit, actually this used to be fixed fully some time, but now,
      because of enhanced capabilities of UI21DEB, there is a junk line
      again with "AX=$5100" and I have no good idea how to kill it,
      so please ignore it ;-)

BUG Nr: 58
Summary: ?????? UI21DEB ???? ?? ?????????? ??????? NFTS ???????????????!!
Status: Closed: INVALID
Note: Your triple fault: 1. RTFM before submitting any BUG 2. Post BUG
      reports in English 3. UI21DEB doesn't support NFTS

BUG Nr: 59
Submitted by: Michael Robinson
Summary: Found great DOS page: http://vetusmoronwarez.com
Status: Closed: INVALID
Note: I'm not interested in silly piracy pages and don't collect obsolete
      pirated crap, this "discovery" is not useful for DOS at all, the
      sooner this retarded page gets closed down, the better for DOS

BUG Nr: 60
Summary: Mess: debugs all including DOS command file
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: Use new debug mode "D3" or "D4" and specify application name

BUG Nr: 61
Summary: Stop using damned hardcoded values
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 62
Summary: Used hack control bits not revealed in the detail list
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 63
Summary: Version of UI21DEB not revealed in the detail list
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 64
Severity: BLOCKER
Summary: OPTIPNG (input PNG) and 7-ZIP (update archive) don't work
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: Rename didn't work, fixed, now both do work fully in DOS

BUG Nr: 65
Severity: BLOCKER
Summary: 7-ZIP (update archive) still doesn't work with "X" FFF hack
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: BUG of EDR-DOS kernel with INT $21 / AX=$7143, must use "N" hack also

BUG Nr: 66
Summary: AL relevance test is bad, still too much pollution with $36 and more
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 67
Summary: I got "Nonsense in BASIC 0:1" now
Status: Closed: INVALID
Note: UI21DEB isn't done in BASIC ;-)

BUG Nr: 68
Summary: Undefined behaviour of TSR if someone else hacks INT $21
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: Now switch "I" is available to define this, see also #9

BUG Nr: 69
Summary: I'm getting "AbortRetryFail"
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: BUG of DOS kernel + command file (nevertheless some other places write
      about "well designed" behaviour here), use "A" hack or "/F" switch
      when starting FREECOM (note that "/F" doesn't work with EDR-DOS
      command file)

BUG Nr: 70
Summary: I'm getting "Remove diskette from A: insert diskette into B:"
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: BUG of DOS kernel (some other places write about "well designed"
      behaviour here also), use "A" hack again, note that "/F" switch
      doesn't help here, and there is an interesting "BUG" about this
      at SF FreeDOS tracker ;-)

BUG Nr: 71
Summary: AH=$50 "SetPSP" critical call missed
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: Now made obligatory

BUG Nr: 72
Summary: GetDiskFreeSpaceObsolete support
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: There is an interesting "BUG" about this at SF FreeDOS tracker ;-)

BUG Nr: 73
Summary: Parsed commandline not reported back
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 74
Summary: ZERO'izing "hcb" on stat buffer trouble is a bad idea
Status: Closed: FIXED

BUG Nr: 75
Summary: No more "AbortRetryFail", still 1'000'000 attempts to access floppy
Status: Closed: FIXED
Note: BUG (or just poor strategy) of command file of DOS, use "Q" hack to
      reduce the 1'000'000 attempts to 1 or "P" hack to disable the floppy
      completely
