Okay, I've managed to install the current version of djgpp (from
oak.oakland.edu), but I get errors when attempting to compile from the test
suite.

Error number one is that gcc is not recognizing the "-v" option as an
option.  It looks for a file by that name.

Number two, when I move -v to the end or remove it all-together, I get an
error of "Unknown file type <hex number> (number)".  The numbers are
different for each file.

Since I don't seem to be able to compile, I can't tell you whether anything
else works.  

Other info: yes, I use gcc at school.  This is on an Intel 486 SX machine
with MsDos 6.2.
Here are my relevant environment variables:

call c:\djgpp\bin\setdjgpp c:/djgpp c:\djgpp
set TMPDIR=c:/djgpp/tmp
set GO32TMP=c:/djgpp/tmp
set GO32=gw 1024 gh 768 driver c:/djgpp/drivers/tseng4k.grd nc 256 emu c:\djgpp/bin/emu387

(and my config.sys has 40 files, 1024 environment space)

Thanks for your help.
