You'll be sorry. There is a reason they dropped real-mode support, you
know. In any case, it will try to detect the CPU and use the run-time for
that CPU, but there is a way to force it to run as if it were on a
lower-class CPU.

I'm not positive, and I don't have an easy way to check, but I think it
is:
        win/s -- standard (i.e., 286) mode
        win/r -- real mode
