I seem to have missed something. I have not suceeded in building GCC with
the crt0 startup flag set to use the Unixy sbrk. I tried to build GCC with
the change above in GCC.C and in TOPLEVL.C, and in other files where I found
what looked like a real main() function. This did not work as it appears
that TOPLEVL.O is included in a number of EXE's along with the real main()
function. I then thought that I would manually modify the LIBC startup code
to always effectively set _crt0_startup_flags to  _CRT0_FLAG_UNIX_SBRK, but
I could not find any references for either CRT0_FLAG_UNIX_SBRK or it's
#defined value of 0x0800.

My question is where is _CRT0_FLAG_UNIX_SBRK used in the startup code? This
is so I can modify the startup code to always use it and then I can re-build
GCC and I know that all of the GCC exe's then have the Unixy SBRK set and
re-test.
