The best way to diagnose this [common] problem is to follow the bug
report format recommended by the FAQ.  Basically, post the following
information here on the group:

1) Your CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT
2) Your environment (type set >environ.lst in DOS and post the result)
3) The output of 'go32-v2' when invoked without arguments
4) The output of gcc when invoked with the '-v' argument in addition
to your normal command line.  Use the 'redir' program that comes with
djgpp to capture the stderr output of gcc as follows:

   redir -o gcc.lst -eo gcc -v ...

5) The contents of the DJGPP.ENV file pointed to by your DJGPP
environment variable.  Especially do this if you've modified DJGPP.ENV
in any way.

The proper area of the FAQ to look in for this sort of problem is
section 8.1, which lists the most common kinds of configuration
problems.
