  A brioef question for you djgpp experts out there.  I have written some
subroutines which I would like available to many programs.  So, I compile them
to object form via:

   gcc poly.c -o poly.o -c -v

  Then, when I wish to use these subroutines in a program, I inlude the
associated header file (poly.h) and compile my program (test.c here) via:

   gcc test.c -o test poly.o -lm -lpc -lgrx -v

  However, when I run the program (go32 test) it runs for approximately 1
second, then crashes giving me the following output:

   Exception 117 (ox75) at eips=197e
     plus two more lines of stuff I didn't write down..

  I'd think that it was simply a fault in my code, except that if I put in a
#include "poly.c" in test.c and compile it via
  
   gcc -v test.c -o test -lgrx -lm -lpc

  The program works fine.  Is there something I'm doing that is obvious/stupid?
   Thanx for any possible help...
