I tried pressing CTRL and the BREAK key, but I also needed to hit return...  Hope
this is the crash data you wanted...

Okay, I tried it with both the goto32-v2 and the gcc -c commands because I didn't
know which one you meant.  I tried it with the first renamed, the second renamed,
both renamed, it still behaves as normal ie it just kills the dos box with gcc and
the goto hangs and CTRL-BREAK gives the same message as printed above.  At no time
did it say anything about not being able to find the specs files, even with both
renamed...

Thought:  Are the DJGPP programs okay with massive hard disks?  I have a 12.7GB C:
drive... (I know it's better to have multiple smaller drives, but I haven't got the
time to play with that at the moment)
