As I stated in a previous posting (which must have been lost somehow
because I never did see it arrive on this list, nor did I get a response),
DJGPP 1.05 worked perfectly on my 33MHz '486, and stopped working at
all with 1.06b.  Programs would compile, but running them from GO32 would
hang my PC.

Since I never got a response, I pulled 1.06b from my hard drive, and
decided not to worry about it until 1.06 was stable (I'm a BC++ user,
so it didn't leave me without a good C compiler).  I don't have time right
now to dig into the compiler, and I can use the hard drive space.

         If a program is useless, it will have to be documented.
