No, no, no, this is wrong.  You should set the breakpoint _before_ 
running the program, not after.  That is, type "br *0x0001e1df" right 
after GDB prints its startup blurb, and _then_ type "run".

No, but is it possible that libstdc++.a you linked against was compiled 
for native GNU/Linux compiler, not as a cross-compiled library for DJGPP?
