I have two applications that work fine on a pentium-grade machine, but both crash on a i386 when the Watt32 lib is called. At first I though that it is because I was using a Watt32 lib compiled for Pentium (the Watt32 identification string was saying '(Pent)'), so then I added -march=i386 when compiling Watt32, unfortunately the applications are still crashing (with a SIGSEGV, General Protection Fault to be exact). The ident. string of the Watt32 build I am using now is this: Watt-32 (2.2.10), GNU-C 4.7.1 (386), djgpp 2.03, Dec 9 2013 Am I alone with that problem? Or maybe - by any chance - anyone already noticed this and would be kind enough to point me in the right direction? :) Or - have anyone already seen Watt32 working on a 386-class PC? I should add that I don't have an i386 machine myself to test - the crashes have been reported to me by a user of my program, so I can't even reproduce the problem at will... This same user says that "wget, which relies on watTCP works perfectly fine on that machine" - so my next step will be to try to use WatTCP instead of Watt32, and see if it changes anything... but I am totally in the dark here. cheers, Mateusz
