I'm not sure this is good enough.  I would prefer a stub to be 
distributed as part of djdev and Binutils, to be unzipped into a standard 
place (like $DJDIR/lib or $DJDIR/share/stub), so that it will be found 
even without a new entry in DJGPP.ENV.

Or maybe we should make each utility use its own stub as the default one?

Also, Robert, do Binutils 2.7 support the environmen variable that points 
to the stub?
