Hi guys!

I've found a very strange thing.
When I run GCC from a command line:
    c:\kernel\!flat\>gcc -c kernel.c
and I run a batch file (make-c.bat):
    @echo off
    gcc -c kernel.c
I get different output coff files (kernel.o).

For example, the first method generates a kernel.o that contains 4 sections
(.text, .data, .bss and .eh_fram), but the second generates only 3 standard
sections (.text, .data and .bss).

What does it mean?

The second thing that I wonder is how the GCC works itself.
Sometimes it terminates with internal error (GPF I think), but if you run
it again immediately after the crash, it may work normally.

What does it mean?

Both these bugs are present on different computers where I use DJGPP.

Your comments...

Thanks in advance.
