dosbox installs OK, and runs, but some of the commands, including the
included MOUNT.COM command, which is supposed to allow mounting of a linux
dir as a DOS drive (C:\ or whatever) don't seem to work properly.  It
returns to the dosbox command prompt without error, but then switching to
the drive that was supposed to be newly mounted (C:) simply spits out a
"Drive C does not exist" error.

The included MEM.COM, which is supposed to display the amount of dosbox
memory free, also just returns without printing anything.

I know it sees them as commands because entering a non-existent command
returns an error, while those simply return nothing.  It's kinda hard to
check functionality much further, as without mount working, I see no way
to actually introduce a complex directory structure and test external
commands.

Also.. Is it better posting such things here, or on the regular Cooker
list?  Per Øyvind Karlsen is the contributor/packager in this case, in
all the changelog entries, but also knowing about the general case would
be useful.
