Please don't do this.  Posting binaries wastes a LOT of bandwidth and
disk space, and is probably going to end up cancelled by one of the
cancelbots that monitors the comp.* newsgroups.

It's also a violation of the GPL to post a binary without its source
in a given forum.  Since the djgpp distribution isn't distributed via
usenet, someone who has ONLY usenet can get this binary and not the
sources, and YOU will get in trouble for violating the GPL.
