Would be nice to have this feature available for all djgpp users.
If you send the patch to me I will apply it.
But if you prefer to upload your own port that will be ok with me too.
I will let you decide what shall be done with this port.

Yes, I know about this issue. I have used the diffs from tar112as.zip
to make the port.
