I'm implementing my own CP/M-80 work-alike using

So far it's working nicely but there's a curious problem with Microsoft
BASIC.
MBASIC51.COM will load files fine, but
MBASIC52.COM won't,
behaving like the files are 0 bytes long. It calls the open-file routine
and that's it.
I'm just curious about the differences between version 5.1 and 5.2. I'm
assuming I'm not returning correct information in the FCB, but I'm
unable to figure out what that might be.
How about somewhere that both binaries can be obtained? Then
individuals can try it with their own favorite CP/M emulator.
