I'd like to have confirmation of whether DJGPP support works for Modern windows before doing the 1.13.2 release; if that's the case, the "planned backward incompatibilities" section in NEWS will have to be update to make it clear that we only plan to remove DJGPP-on-DOS support, and that DGJPP-on-Windows should continue to work correctly.
