This one has some strange problem(s) which prevent configure scripts
from running correctly.  The problem manifests itself with error
messages from `cat', like this:

	c:/djgpp/bin/cat.exe: -: Access denied (EACCES)

Seems like there's some strange problem with readin stdin (?).

I also see some tests done by the script that fail without any visible
reason, like some library functions DJGPP has that are declared
absent.  It's possible that this is another symptom of the same
problem.

I expect the problem to pop up with any configure script, but the one
where I saw this is from the latest pretest of Texinfo.  So, if other
scripts don't show this behavior, download texinfo-3.12g.tar.gz from
ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu and try to build it with "djgpp\config.bat".
