+@chapter Known/potential Problems in the B20.1 Release
+
+@section Windows 95 freezing up
+While this problem may have been worse under B19, Control-c's in bash
+under Win 95 may still be able to lock up the Win 95 kernel, freezing
+your machine.  This problem can be fixed if you are running the OSR2
+version of Win 95 by installing the USB patch available on OSR2 CDs or
+on MSDN subscription CDs.  More information about OSR2 and the USB patch
+is available from @file{http://www.compuclinic.com/osr2faq/index.html}.
+
+@section Some programs can't deal with // pathname scheme in arguments
+gcc and other tools aren't fully compatible with the current pathname
+scheme: it can't grok an argument of -I//d/foo which means it is vital
+that when attempting to configure/build UNIX packages, that only normal
+paths with single slashes are used.
