This has nothing to with the Bash version: you will get this message
with any shell.

See the GDB manual: the second command-line argument is taken by GDB
as the core file.  DJGPP doesn't support core files yet, so you get
the error message.

Why did you need that extra argument?  What did you think preproc.c
should mean to GDB?
