   I'm trying to get DJGPP Objective-C working (the distribution
   version SIGFPEs whether you do *anything*)

This might work.  Put it in your program, in main, before the first
Objective-C call.

  {
    volatile short cw;

    __asm__ volatile ("fstcw (%0)" : : "g" (&cw));
    cw |= 1;			/* Mask the `invalid' exception.  */
    __asm__ volatile ("fldcw (%0)" : : "g" (&cw));
  }

Please tell me if it works, and which version of DJGPP you're using.

If it doesn't, libobjc.a is part of the GNU CC distribution, available
from the usual GNU mirrors.  --Tiggr
