Hello ! In a previous mail, our friend Eli Zaretskii said :
-=)> Use the -mregparm=n (where n is a number [1..3]).  Look it up in the GCC

  May someone recompile these libraries and make them available for everyone
on a ftp ? I tried but all the programs crashed with the new libc when I
added -mrtd and -mregparm=3. Using __attribute__ ((__stdcall__)) for my own
functions also cause an exception, although __regparm__ works fine. May
someone help me produce the fastest possible code with DJGPP ?

  Also what is exactly the effect of the "-N" flag ?

  Best regards, Frank.
