Subject:	djgcc install problems

I have been continually trying to do an install of djgpp on
an 486SX with 20 mbs of RAM running DOS 5.0.  My first query to the readership 
indicated that my problem  might lie with the RAM and HIGH memory
situation. I have now fixed that and still I have problems.  Heres the
situation.

I can compile and run C programs without a hitch.  The problems occurs
when I try a C++ compile.  I get  segmentation fault (almost)  every
time.  I say almost because I did get one compile to work.  I used
stubedit gcc.exe  to change the virtual memory allocation to zero.
The next time, like magic, I got a "Hello World" C++ compile to work.
Alas, no go the next time.  Is this a clue or a red herring?  In any
case, being a novice at DOS and PC's in general, I don't have a clue
as to what to do next.  

Note:  An additional clue is that 4th maintanence fix, 112m4.bat, also
has a segementation crash when I try to run it. 

I would greatly appreciate any advice on this.  At the moment, I am
dead in the water.  

Thanks in advance
