First of all, I'm assuming based on your reference to V3, that you
performed this compile test using DJGPP V2.0. In your watcom examples
you failed to mention the size of the required DOS extender, which I
might add is well over 100k, while the gcc bin is extender free.
Second, this is a forum for the discussion of development of DJGPP. If
you have anything to add that is not relevant to the topic, please don't
post it here.
Third, I noticed in your sig, the reference to student... which I think
is very appropriate. If you have the arrogance to bash compilers based
on how big their hello worlds are, then you obviously need to do some
more studying.
