In Watcom one has very good control of how function arguments are
passed
(for example, I can say first arg in EAX, second in BL and the third on
stack )
How can I do this with djgpp ( or with gcc for that matter ).

And another question: gcc crashes when compiling file tif_fax3.c from
the
tiff library package (all the other files compile ok). By "crashes" I
mean
a SIGSEGV. I tried growing the stack as described in the faq, but it
doesn't 
work. The file isn't large at all. I can't get it to compile.

Thanks,
Laurentiu

PS. please email too, because I probably won't get to read news for
about a
couple of weeks or so. Thank you.
