The development versions 3.2.0 and 3.3.1 of the compilers show no output for Windows 98. I mean the progress of the compilationprocess, not the output via writeln, like (log from Win7)

This applies to the i386-win32 compiler and cross-compiler for x86_64-win64, whereas for i386-go32v2 the output is as expected like that from the 304 release version.
I know that Win98 is rather old and somewhat unsupported, but it would be great if the standard i386-win32 compiler could be used too (besides go32v2).
Can anybody give a hint how to change the compiler source, so that the situation is like 304? And what actually has been changed and why?
BTW: What happened to the MS-DOS compiler? I could not find distribution archives for 3.2.0 or 3.3.1?
