I am porting some C code, which was compiled under DJGPP 2.01
originally. I am compiling it in 2.72 now, and it appears to run fine.
During the make I had some hassles with command line arguments though:

-mpentium                         seemed to exist on 2.01 but not 2.72.
The highest x86 supported on 2.72 seems to be -m486
-Wno-sign-compare         also seems to have disappeared. I can't find
the new equivalent. This one disables the
        "Comparison between signed and unsigned" (or some such) warning.
Considering the program (MAME) compiles
       with -Werrors   (all warnings are errors - presently disabled) I
would like to resolve this one. I get about 100 of those
       warnings during the make. I really don't want to have fix all
those. Most are pretty trivial.
