So does that mean its not really a djgpp problem? (I'm still trying to
understand the difference)

Short web pages are not effected. In long pages it turns the first six
hundred lines 
into one line of a repeating pattern: 
tes ÿÿÿÿ	   
@  
@  	   tes ÿÿÿÿ	   
@  
@  	   tes ÿÿÿÿ	   
@
It also changes the file so my editor thinks its a hex file. 

The good version produced by GCC-2.95.2 was 514 kb
This bad version produced by 3.0.3 has 926 kb and took twice as long to
compile

If anyones interested, this page links to the code and a download with
the code and the offending executable:
http://reenie.org/data/badindenter/index.htm

I'm not urgently asking for help or anything like that, I just thought
it might help someone out there track down the bugs in 3.0.3.  
GCC-2.95.2 works fine for my purposes, but I'm glad someones trying to
make it more compliant.
