Because "+" isn't a valid character in filenames in plain DOZE. So
DJGPP's libstdc++.a is named libstdcxx.a. What you did here seems most

And what does symify and bfdsymify say when run here?

Looks a little large, but so what? Probably multum debug info or
something. I suggest you ignore the size issue for now.

: Any ideas what is happening here?

Looks good. You managed to compile your program... Now you just have
some minor details to work out...


Right,
