Obviously, you are running a rather old version of GPC that does not
yet understand `uses' and `object'.  At the command line, type `gpc -v'.
You will get something like `gpc version 1.1(2.6.3)'.  The current
official version yields `gpc version 2.0(2.7.2.1)'.

To upgrade, download `v2gnu/gpc20b.zip' from your favourite DJGPP site.

If you are curious about the upcoming next version (2.1) of GNU Pascal,
visit ftp://agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/gnu-pascal/beta/.  :-)

Hope this helps,
