Earlier, I wrote asking for help getting djgpp (especially cc1plus.exe) 
to work in 4 megs of ram on a 486.  I had read some info in the archives 
and faq that seemed to indicate my problems (internal errors) might be 
caused by insufficient heap in cwsdpmi, so I tried to adjust that.  
Later, someone pointed out that it might be insuffecient stack size in 
cc1plus, so I used stubedit to try and fix that.

Another helpful soul refered me to the faq for information regarding 
setting up djgpp in low memory environs, but I had already followed 
everything there.

And it still won't work.  Just to make sure I was not going insane, I 
installed djgpp on the systems at work (NT 4.0beta, 32 megs of Ram) and 
it worked fine.

In summary, yes, I've read the faq, and no, it is not a real internal 
error since it compiles correctly on the NT machine.  Can anyone help me? 
Is anyone with a low memory machine compiling c++ stuff?

Just to round out my posting, here's some additional information about my 
system:
