Hi,

Just FYI, I would recommend to create a new ("Quake 2") thread
for all of this in the near future.

Juan's /beta/v2gnu/ port of Make 4.1 uses .DXE v3 by default.
His /beta/v2tk/ Lua port also (optionally) used it.

Though I wouldn't recommend worrying with that just yet if you're
still trying to fix other issues.

As Louis said, GCC 5.1.0 is "-std=c11" by default. Try manually
using "-std=gnu89", and see if that helps.

Ignore find entirely! Use "rm .../*.o".

XP usually works fairly well for DJGPP. Though I dunno, maybe there's
some (more) bugs. Maybe if subdirs nest too deeply? Try to avoid that.

Is that (only) with debugging enabled? Yeah, older released (BinUtils
before 2.23 ???) didn't have the COFF relocation extension hack.

Honestly, I wouldn't upgrade at all (just yet). If you just want a stable
release, don't worry with it. Of course, I'm not saying you can't use 2.05,
but at the moment I don't see any huge advantage (outside of just helping
further test it for everyone here).
