Subject:	problem with V2 ld.exe on 386...

I'm trying to get djgpp v2.00 to work on a 386 with 1 MB of RAM. Now, v1, 
would compile a simple "hello world" program in less than 40 seconds, and 
thats fine as I wasn't planning on using this machine for anything big. 
V2, is taking much more time for the same program, that is about 3 
minutes for cpp, cc1 and as, and never seems to be able to complete the 
link stage (ld.exe), I have let ld run for 8+ minutes and it still did 
not finish. I am not using any optimizations etc. the only switches I'm 
using (with gcc) are -v and -o. I have tried beta-9 and release 1 of cwsdpmi,
and do not have any other dpmi loaded or in my path. Things did not improve 
when I did not load HIMEM.SYS. I think that somehow it should be able to run, 
as everything else (cc1 etc.) seems to work, and any help from anybody out 
here is appreciated. 

Thanks in advance,

YL
