Hi all,

I  have updated the packages available at the unofficial  DJGPP Windows 2000
site, http://clio.rice.edu/djgpp/win2k/main.htm, over the last 24 hours. The
updates  are built with the latest CVS LIBC from 2-Sep-2001 which includes
resolutions to all known Win 2K issues.

With these updates DJGPP should not be stable enough for people to start
beta testing the packages with Win 2K or XP to see if there are any other
issues lurking in the code that we have not allready fixed. Please note that
the LIBC that was used is a not fully tested.

The only outstanding issue with regards to DJGPP and Win 2K with the
available packages is that in Bash 2.05 the set command may be causing
issues with re-configuring packages and as such you may not be able to
re-configure or re-build the packages on Win 2K until this is resolved. Bash
2.03 and 2.04 do not work on Win 2K without using the LFN TSR for NT 4.0. So
if you do need to re-configure or re-build the packages please download the
NT 4.0 LFN TSR.

Hope this helps

Regards,
Andrew
P.S. The update should be finished by the time you read this if all goes
well.
