By ``DJGPP sources'' what exactly do you mean?  Does that include the
C++ libraries' sources (libstdc++ and libg++)?

Perhaps searching the news group archives for __EH_FRAME_BEGIN will
provide examples of code that used to need them.

Robert, can you please tell what was the cause to put __EH_FRAME_*
into the linker scripts?  I know that at one time users who had
djgpp.djl without them would get undefined references from the linker
(see section 8.19 of the FAQ), but I forget the details.
