Please also post the exact message printed when the program crashes, 
complete with the registers' dump and the stack traceback, when you 
report program crashes.  It is much easier to guess what's wrong when 
that info is available.

One possible problem is that your program includes some unresolved 
externals.  The linker supplied with RSXNTDJ doesn't report such 
problems, so you can miss them.  The DJGPP FAQ explains in section 3.6 
how to use the DJGPP linker to spot such problems.
