I get the same repeatable problem compiling zlib with Win2K.  Here's
the info that I have:

- using bnu2951b
- compiling zlib113

prob.1: during make -fmsdos\makefile.dj2, I frequently get the
following dialog box message during gcc phase (sample gcc command:
"gcc -MMD -O3  -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wpointer-arith -Wconversion
-Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -c compress.c -o
compress.o"):
ntvdm.exe - Application Error:  The instruction at "0x0f048d8a"
referenced memory at "0x01340ffc".  The memory could not be "written".
It still seems to build the object ok.

prob. 2: during ar phase of make, I get the same message as Mr. Lee
(sample command: ar rcs zlib.a adler32.o): "d:\djgpp\bin/ar.exe:
libz.a: rename: Not enough memory (ENOMEM)"

I've got tons of DPMI mem set in _default.pif (16M), so that shouldn't
be a problem..

Sorry not to have plunged in to this yet myself - but I just
encountered this problem tonight, and figured I'd post it after having
seen this message.
