The instructions do NOT tell to edit DJGPP.ENV!  Please revert to the 
original version of that file, and set the DJGPP environment variable 
instead, as per the instruction.

Unauthorized editing of DJGPP.ENV is known to produce very subtle and 
hard-to-debug problems.

What does "mem /c" in the DOS box print?

Also, what happens if you invoke cpp.exe from the command line of the DOS 
box?  Does it run?

Yet another thing to check is that maybe cpp.exe that sits first on your 
PATH belongs to another compiler (like Borland's).
