thanks for all answers, the
problem has been solved already by
uncommenting the prototypes of xmalloc
and xfree in include\stdlib.h.

the question now is rather if the
djgpp distribution should leave
those lines commented, because it
will not work with the strict
checking of gcc 2.95.

I would like to discuss that issue,
but I do not know why you uncommented them
in the first place.

btw: there is another thing:
the file cxxfilt.exe is included in two zip's:
bnu281b.zip    55808  12-31-97 14:33   bin/cxxfilt.exe
gpp2951b.zip   157302  09-24-99 02:14   bin/cxxfilt.exe
and both seem to work! (I've unpacked the files in a different
order, and it works as well)
