Subject: GNU C/C++ compiler problem under DOS


Hello,
	I have received the GNU C/C++ compiler with
my copy of Desqview/X and I have a problem with it.
When I try to compile whith it (in a DOS environment)
it seems to do nothing but access the disk, one time 
for 3 hours, even on the simplest program, such as this
one:

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

main()
{
        printf("\nhello");
}

	In my autoexec.bat file I have made
the following environmental declarations:

rem **** GNU c/c++ definitions ****
set path=%PATH%;D:/GNUC/bin
set qmake=
set GO32=emu D:/GNUC/emu387/emu387
set TMPDIR=f:/
set GO32TMP=f:/
set COMPILER_PATH=D:/GNUC/bin
set C_INCLUDE_PATH=D:/GNUC/include
set CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=D:/GNUC/cplusinn:D:/GNUC/include
set OBJC_INCLUDE_PATH=D:/GNUC/include
set OBJCPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=D:/GNUC/include
set LIBRARY_PATH=D:/GNUC/lib
set GCCLIB=D:/GNUC/lib
set BISON_SIMPLE=D:/GNUC/lib/bison.simple
set BISON_HAIRY=D:/GNUC/lib/bison.hairy
set FLEX_SKELETON=D:/GNUC/lib/flex.skeleton

	Also I am using the following makefile:

CFLAGS= -O -c -DMSDOS -DSHAPE 

O = xtest.c

L = -lxaw -lxmu -lxt -lxlib -lsys -lc -lm

xtest:
     gcc -o xtest.exe  $(O) $(L) $(CFLAGS)


	Has anybody else seen this problem, if so
please contact me as I am very interested in getting
this GNU compiler working on my DOS machine.
