I have recently installed DJGPP V2, and things go well, except one
thing...  I can't run GDB in a Windows DOS shell.

If I write a simple "Hello World" program, and compile it with
debugging info included, then under GDB if I try a simple
"break main" and "run", I get a SIGSEGV signal, and it won't go
any further.  Doing the same in stand-alone DOS works fine.

Is this just the way it is, or am I doing something wrong?

Ta.
