This crash is due a bug in the library routine __crt0_load_environment_file. It overwrites memory if the file djgpp.env contains a non-empty line without an '=' sign in the section it is looking for. In particular, Your system may crash if you edit djgpp.env with an editor that appends control/z to the file! / Reported as bug #100 to the bug tracking system at delorie.com
