   NAME
        AbortPkt -- Aborts an asynchronous packet, if possible. (V36)

   SYNOPSIS
        AbortPkt(port, pkt)
                  D1    D2

        void AbortPkt(struct msgport *, struct dospacket *)

   FUNCTION
        This attempts to abort a packet sent earlier with sendpkt to a
        handler.  There is no guarantee that any given handler will allow
        a packet to be aborted, or if it is aborted whether function
        requested completed first or completely.  After calling AbortPkt(),
        you must wait for the packet to return before reusing it or
        deallocating it.

   INPUTS
        port - port the packet was sent to
        pkt  - the packet you wish aborted

   BUGS
        As of V37, this function does nothing.
