My guess is that you have an outdated version of djgpp - although I have a feeling that gcc 2.7.2.1 was first used in djgpp 2.01, so maybe you have installed 2.01 on top of an older djgpp version, and have some old files left over? Try unzipping the djgpp 2.01 files in a clean directory (as a general rule, installing new packages on top of old ones is a dangerous practice). /* * Shawn Hargreaves - shawn AT talula DOT demon DOT co DOT uk - http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/ * Ghoti: 'gh' as in 'enough', 'o' as in 'women', and 'ti' as in 'nation'. */
