I have tried several times without success to recompile gcc. I'm doing so
to attempt to correct the floating point errors that result when I try and
run Objective C programs. I've downloaded the patch listed in the FAQ, but
from what I could tell it was already reflected in GCC 2.7.2.1. All the
components seem to compile without difficulty, but neither cc1.exe or
cc1obj.exe will link. The error I get is:

>d:/djgpp/bin\ld.exe: cc1: .text: line number overflow: 0x10b51 > 0xffff
>cc1: final close failed: File truncated
>make.exe: *** [cc1] Error 1

when I execute 'make,' or

>d:/djgpp/bin\ld.exe: cc1obj: .text: line number overflow: 0x11a22 > 0xffff
>cc1obj: final close failed: File truncated
>make.exe: *** [cc1obj] Error 1

when I execute 'make OBJC.'

I suppose the real problem is that I'm not sure I'm compiling it correctly.
There aren't any DOS specific instructions for compiling GCC that I've been
able to find. Following the Info instrcutions for executing 'make
LANGUAGES=objective-c' doesn't seem differ at all from plain 'make,' so I'm
not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Any help at all would be very appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
