Probably mkbuiltins should be fixed to not expect stat() size to equal
read() size.  The thing that threw me off was that this got reported
as "file doesn't exist".

Yes, I think you do need it unless you have built your own gcc.exe with
the proper builtin paths.

That probably is the problem, but I think the proper -D's should be added
to the machines.h configuration anyway.

Yes, I think that would be useful until all the bugs a shaken out.

Having used both the Cygnus win32 version of bash and yours, I must say
that I'm really impressed with how well the DJGPP version works.  I've
never been able to do anything useful with the Cygnus version, but in just
one weekend I've managed to bootstrap GNAT with only minor difficulty with
yours.  Keep up the good work.
