Hi.
I'm new to DJGPP and since I will be using the compiler to create win32 dll
files, the first thing I tried was to compile the DLLCRT example that came
with the RSXDJ package.
The linker did not except one of the options (-lcrtcs).

A dump from the DOS screen :

C:\djgpp\RSXNTDJ\SAMPLE\DLL\DLLCRT>make
gcc -Zwin32 -Zcrtdll -Wall -O -Zdll -c dlltest.c
gcc -Zwin32 -Zcrtdll  -Zdll dlltest.o -o dlltest.dll
c:/djgpp/bin/ld.exe: cannot open -lcrtcs: No such file or directory (ENOENT)
make.exe: *** [dlltest.dll] Error 1

Since "-l" is documented as a valid linker option I do not understand why
the linker complains.
The library libcrtcs.a seems to be in the right place :
C:\DJGPP\RSXNTDJ\LIB\ST.
It also has the same dos(short) filename as the long one.

Is there an obvious reason for this or has anyone had a similar problem ?

Thanks in advance.

For completeness I have added as much relevant info about my configuration
that I could think of.
