Sorry to bother you all with such a simple question, but...
The FAQs refer to DJGPP as a 16 bit version...

I'm successfully using it, running on pentium.
I assume it (gcc) is generating 16-bit code.

For a benchmark I've created, it runs a a figure of merit
that scales to the clock speed.  e.g. 1.66 = 166 Mhz. pentium.
(for Windows95)   On a 200mhz Pentium-pro, in NT, it gives a 
dismal figure of merit of 0.5

Compiling for a 32-bit NT system (with another compiler) gives 
figures of merit 7.0 for 166 mhz pentium and 14 for 200mhz P-pro.

My question is: Are there any compiler options for djgpp gcc,
and are there libraries that support compilation for 32-bit
pentium machines?  

I've slogged through FAQs, and info, and found no help here.
I'm afraid the simple answer is no.

Any hope that I'm just simply missing something?

Thanks,
