It is obsolete, and has been for about five years.  You may assume it
doesn't exist.  I don't even know why we're storing AMD's proprietary
binaries there.

go32 means "DJGPP Version 1", which was superceded by V2 in 1996.  V2
is called i586-pc-msdosdjgpp, but is incompatible with the modules in
utils/msdos.  See http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/
