See http://snowball.frogspace.net/djgpp/index.html.

If it still fails after you try Bash 2.03, please post here the error 
message(s).

Yep, sorry.  You didn't say you were trying this on Windows 9X (I think), 
so I didn't bother to make the patches LFN-clean.  My build was on plain 
DOS.

Everybody does their own patches...

Btw, it would be nice if people would post a message saying that the 
problem is solved by someone who sent you a private mail.  I didn't have 
all those patches ready, but when I saw that nobody replied you for 
several days, I sat down and created them.  If I knew your problem was 
already solved, it might have saved me an hour or so of work...
