A friend of mine is very interested in the Midnight Commander
port to DJGPP (also Borland), however we find that we can not
get a successfull build... we manage to get the individual modules
to produce  .o  files, but the final Link fails due to undefined
references in the aecurses library.... (see below)

So the question is:
Does ANYONE have WORKING sources for Midnight Commander
for MSDOS or Win95... where we'd have minimal trouble actually
compiling it ourselves,
using the lastest versions of DJGPP &| Borland.

We never did find a working executable for the one dos/DJ version
we do have.  We have a Win95 version, but no sources for it
apparently.

Any help appreciated, thanks!
