Subject:	gcc installation

   Okay, somebody may tell me to RTFM, but I will ask anyway. I recently tried
to install gcc 2.2.2 on my home computer and I am having a little bit of
difficulty, which no amount of careful thought or fiddling has worked. I am
installing the contents of the files djgcc222.zip, djdev138.zip, djgas108.zip
on my 386-40 with a 387 as the faq says I should have to get things running.
I have set all the environment variables and done everything that the readme
that came with the zip files said I should do to install djgpp.
   Here is the problem: I can compile and run programs that have simple text
output and do simple math functions (+-*/), BUT when I try something like
sin() or sqrt(), I get an error telling me that there is an "undefined
symbol _sin" or the like. I imagine that something is not being found
by the compiler and the rest.
   Yes, I am familiar with the C language and gcc on a unix system, but I have
never installed my own compiler. I have eliminated all the stupid things (like
not having the #include <math.h>), so I am pretty sure that my installation
must be wrong. As I said, I simply unzipped the files onto my hard disk and
set the environment variables as the readme said.

   Any help would be very much appreciated. I need a c compiler on my personal
computer, and I would really prefer gcc.

   Thanks in advance!
