Did you use patched libraries?  Robert used several patches to library 
functions inside src/debug, which he posted to djgpp-workers.  You need 
to use them.  (I'm not sure these problems are because of those patches.)

Also, you shouldn't draw any conclusions from what GDB does on Linux.  
Linux uses ELF, so much of its debugging support is totally different.

Sure, I agree completely.  I only mentioned those batch files as a means 
to understand what needs to be done and which files are required for the 
DJGPP build.  I didn't mean to say Andrew should use those batch files in 
building 4.17.
