Hello,

after installing DJGPP 1.11 and updating it up to and including DJ111M5,
I tried to compile hello.c (via testit.bat) and keep getting the following
error message, and no executable is produced:

 [...]
 f:/djgpp/bin/cc1.exe f:/djgpp/temp/cc006182 -fno-builtin -quiet -dumpbase
                   hello.c -version -o f:/djgpp/temp/cca06182
 GNU C version 2.5.7 (80386, BSD syntax) compiled by GNU C version 2.5.7.
  f:/djgpp/bin/as.exe -o f:/djgpp/temp/ccb06182 f:/djgpp/temp/cca06182
  f:/djgpp/bin/ld.exe -o hello f:/djgpp/lib/crt0.o -Lf:/djgpp/lib
    f:/djgpp/temp/ccb06182 -lgcc -lc -lgcc
    f:/djgpp/lib/crt0.o: malformed input file (not rel or archive)
                         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

What does this mean?
I realize that this might be a FAQ (I'm new to DJGPP as well as to this
mailing list). If so: Is there a FAQ list  available somewhere?

Thanks for any info.
Best regards,
MArtin
