I used Windows 98, after applying most of the patches sent so far.

Does it require that?  I didn't need to; but I'm using an old Make 
(3.7.5).

On one build, I received "Load error: can't switch mode".  Rerunning 
Make solved this, so it's probably the same problem with the DPMI 
host, or at least something similar.

Where are the instructions you mention?  I couldn't find any.

I built it using v2.01, by creating a fresh djgpp directory, 
installing djlsr202 there and copying the include files from 
djdev202.  It feels slightly awkward to me to have to get djdev when 
I'm just going to recreate most of its contents.  I also copied in 
from my 2.01 installation lib/djgpp.djl and lib/libgcc.a (I hadn't 
applied your patch to make libgcc be found properly).

I hope that was correct; it seemed to work.

I noticed quite a few isolated warnings from various files; if nobody 
else has fixed them by the time I get around to it then I'll send 
patches.
