Yarn and SYS3175 error

After running souper and yarn (OS/2 versions) without any problems for many
months, I now get a SYS3175 error whenever I invoke import or yarn.

My setup is as follows:

Partition C is a bootable WARP 4.0 partition. Partition D is a bootable Warp
3.0 partition. Partition E: contains data and apps. Import.exe and yarn.exe
reside in the subdirectory e:\os2apps\yarn. Import and yarn were working fine
whether I booted from C: or from D:. Doing a backup of C: I screwed up and
had to reinstall WARP 4.0 on C:. Everything works fine except for yarn. If I
boot from C:, souper will download mail and messages and mail, but both
import.exe and yarn.exe give the sys 3175 error. If I boot from D:, then
import and yarn work fine. Since both C: and D: use import and yarn form the
same subdirectory e:\os2apps\yarn, I am sure that the import.exe and yarn.exe
files are the same.

I have checked c:\config.sys and it has the same yarn variables set as
d:\config.sys.

I am completely baffled. Does the sys3175 error mean I need to reinstall once
again?
