No.  When you set DJGPP=e:\dj\djgpp.env, it takes care of all the
rest.

  ^^^^^^^^^^^
You should never do this!  Just set DJGPP=e:\dj\djgpp.env and that's
all.

Well, is there a file by the name `Debuggable.s' in the src/
directory?  If there's no such file, then you need to look for it.  If
there *is* such a file, here's a couple of possible reasons:

	1) You have unzipped the package with a program that doesn't
support long filenames (Debuggable.s is longer than 8+3 DOS limits),
so the filename go truncated.

	2) You didn't set LFN=y in the environment, so Make works with
long filename support disabled.

Btw, the above assumes that you work on Windows 95.  You should always
tell this explicitly; people don't have to second-guess your
environment when they are trying to help you.
