This doesn't sound right.  It's quite possible that you compile your
program incorrectly.  Please post the exact command you used to invoke
the compiler and the error messages that the compiler printed.

Try sections 8.2, 8.4, and 8.7 of the DJGPP FAQ list (v2/faq211b.zip
from the same place you get DJGPP).  But that's a stab in the dark;
without seeing the compilation command and the error messages, that's
the best one can do to help you.
