Subject: SEGV without option -s to gcc

Hi.

I have a problem which I cannot understand why it happens.
If I compile programs with gcc (from djgpp 1.10) with option -s, all
my programs work fine.
But if I don't use that option, almost all of them stop immediately with
exception 'segmentation violation', pointing to some place inside malloc
code (usually malloc+200 or similar).

I'm using my own go32.exe (compiled directly with BCC 3.1 using option -3
and optimizations).

I don't mind using always '-s', but unfortunately I can't use the debugger,
because that problem is in the startup phase of a program, before executing
the program's code.

Is it related to go32.exe version I use? Should I change to another go32.exe
version?

Thanks in advance,
Antonio.
