About 0.5.23. There were very little changes in some files only
(not in C sources). They were only related to building gcc together
with gcc as at first gcc-2.8.1 sources were patched and I had to
do corresponding patches also for g77 (stamp-objlist were renamed to
s-objlist). I also tried to rename some other g77 related stamp files
to get them unique even with MS-DOS filename length restrictions (8+3).
However I missed some files (g2c.h.in) but there is not so simple to
finish it. So LFN support is perhaps still needed to build g77

configur.bat in gcc-2.8.1 is some relic from previous versions.
For DJGPP is simply calls 'sh djconfig.sh'. For other systems it's perhaps
not working at all with sources from gcc281s.zip.

I think the best would be to ask user to patch libc.a. I hope djdev202
should be out in not too long time and then such change will be no more
needed.
