The full crash message printed when the program goes down (outside the
debugger), complete with registers' dump and everything else, would be
useful here.  Please consider posting it if the guess below doesn't
solve the problem.

One situation where such crashes happen is when you have a very large
automatic array in your main function, so large that it blows up the
512MB stack.  See section 15.9 of the DJGPP FAQ for more details.
