I would recommend you to get the gcc280s.zip archive from simtelnet. Unzip the archive, read the file README.DJGPP about the requirements and possible problems. Then figure aout all the DJGPP specific patches by looking for pairs of files like "gcc.c" and "gcc.c~" where the file with the ~ is the original file and doing a diff -c gcc.c~ gcc.c will tell you all the diffs which are made there. Save these diffs and then restore the original files by renaming them to the original filename. Then apply the diffs from gcc 2.8.0 to gcc 2.8.1 and the try to apply the saved diffs for DJGPP. Now, finally after some hand-work you should be able to rebuild gcc 2.8.1 in a similar way like described in the README.DJGPP for gcc 2.8.0. If you get some errors when applying the diffs from 2.8.0 to 2.8.1 about missing files simply ignore them, since the DJGPP source archive for gcc 2.8.0 does not inlcude all the files which ar part of the original GNU archive. > still it wouldn't build for me.
