This is a known problem in Objective C, it is described in the DJGPP FAQ 
list (section 11.7).  That section includes a pointer to a patch which 
solves this bug, but you will have to rebuild GCC in order to get a 
corrected version :-(.

The latest vesrion of the DJGPP FAQ list is available as v2/faq201b.zip 
from the same place you get DJGPP.
