Under Win98SE. It's difficult to say where is the problem. If You're using 
djdev203.zip make sure You have latest update and You should additionally
patch include/sys/djtypes.h (definition of _DJ_va_list is wrong there,
one should use __builtin_va_list fore gcc-3.X)

It seems to become outdated rather quickly. So usually You should make
sure You have both recent this file and recent GCC snapshot.

Only CVS versions (I'm testing CVS version of GCC-3.1 under Linux
anyway it's not a problem). I haven't tried public snapshots, so You may 
need to modify scripts, but they should work for upcoming gcc-3.1 release

> Do you use another set of scripts?

I haven't used build.bat for rather long time and now I have also deleted
it as obsolete. Use build.sh instead. Also I suggest to update gcc31s2.zip
as I put out a newer one (from yesterday's build)
