This might be a quirk of your make program. I'm able to abort a series of
compilations by hitting control-c using OPUS MAKE. Another possibility is
how are you invoking gcc? I compile one routine at a time, effectively doing
gcc foo1.c
gcc foo2.c
...
The behavior might be different for
gcc foo1.c foo2.c ...
Beware of hitting control-break. Go32 leaves the control-break interrupt
pointing into itself when it terminates which is not a good thing. There was
some discussion of how to fix this a few weeks ago, so I think it will be
fixed in the next maintenance release.
