I am new to the 'djgpp' system and this mailing list.
I picked up the latest from oak.oakland.edu.
The size of the programs that I am compiling take days on the djgpp
gnu compiler.  I was forced to crank up Linux copy over the include
files compile with -c to get '.0' files and then put those back over
to DOS to link with the djgpp gcc compiler and create the executable.

PS. any FTP site where I can pick up the earlier versions.
