16-bit compilation in 32-bit compilation

I heard multiple times of problems, when a 16 bit program was compiled on
a 32 bit system. Specially installation programs then tend to fail.
Best you install an additional Win3.x (from DOS prompt), and use it for
compilation of 16 bit programs. Then you can also figure out the
differences between the executables, compiled with both environments.
The only differences I found so far are the library names, that are all
uppercase when compiled in 16 bit environment, and mixed or all lowercase
when compiled in 32 bit environments. Perhaps it's sufficient to patch the
file names.
