Hi there !

I tried to set up ez-gcc (from the japanese server) but I didn't get
very far :

I unpacked everything ok. Then I wrote a Hello, World program and 
compiled it. Fine. But when I run it the MS-DOS window crashes and
I get the following message :

Program aborted - illegal operation
If the program persists, look at Win95 help...
The program encountered an unspecified exception.
Error location : 1EF3:0158
Active interrupts : none.
(translated from French)

I have a Pentium 75 and run windows95. I have 8 Mbytes of RAM.
I was using a DOS window in Win95 (default settings).
I tried the same after booting only DOS, to no avail.
