What is the 'default' for #pragma pack() for the different compilers
please ?

BTW my original problem went away by using #pragma pack(4) in MINGW,
which seems to be the default with DJGPP. May be it works by accident
only,
but it's good enough for me. So after all my first MINGW/GRX application
is 
running. The only(?) thing I couldn't find out is how to printf() text
to
the console window or producing a beep while being in GRXMain().
