Thanks for straightening this out.

OS/2 either includes win32s or you can add one. (One problem is 
that Win-OS/2 only "supports" a win32s up to about version 1.25, I 
believe. This of course limits the programs that will run, like 
S-Plus Version 4.5 will not run because it requires a newer 
win32s.)
