Description
DosQueryAppType?() is not listed in the high-mem supporting APIs and indeed it acts weird (returncode=87 and appType=0 whatever the real appType is) when being passed a char* as first argument that is located above 512MB. So it would be great, if it a SafeDosQueryAppType?() wrapper could be written and then add it to os2safe.h.

Patch (1st try) to implement SafeDosQueryAppType?

Hmm, weird. Why does Trac only display the first part of the diff?
Anyway, again without even trying to compile libc (don't have time to even try) the diff I just attached is a first try to add a safe wrapper for DosQueryAppType?(). Don't understand what the SAFE_DOS_FAILURE() is about but copied that from other wrappers. I guess the PSCZ macros also work for PSZs...

(In [3387]) Added SafeDosQueryAppType? and SafeWinUpper? (both untested). Fixes #132.

Not sure if you would rather have a separate ticket for it but as a place to keep track of it, WinUpper? also was an unsafe call.
