Don't forget that FreeCOM is also supposed to be able to run over a serial
line via CTTY. In that case the beep should happen on the terminal and not
on the PC where FreeCOM actually runs.
So I vote for
putchar('\007');
no BIOS, no int29, no delay timing, no direct hardware, just keep it
simple -- the ASCII beep goes to STDOUT, redirected to STDAUX and beeps at
the right place.
