The problem is with LD.EXE. For some reason the version with DJGPP
1.12 and V2 does not work properly. You need to get the LD.EXE from
version 1.11 along with go32.exe to run it. I don't know why this
happens, but this does work.
You need to put go32.exe into a seperate library ( i use
c:\djgpp\bin1) and make sure it follows the c:\djgpp\bin directory in
your path.
Good luck
