I did some tests with 22 June CVS version of DJGPP. I have newer one 
unpacked on Linux partition (updated nigthly from cron task), but I 
didn't want to reboot ...

Strange. All my attempts to break mkdoc.cc I tried failed:

1.	normal build in DOS session under Win98 SE with my binaries of
	binutils-2.10

2.	the same with bnu210b.zip from DJGPP distribution (DOS
	session under Win98 SE)

3.	the same with bnu210b.zip from DJGPP distribution under plain 	
        DOS

4.  	 the same as 2 but I only removed -mbnu210 from cc1spec

No crashes from mkdoc.exe at all (In other attemps except the first one
I simply removed hostbin/makedoc.exe and rerun make)

Installed DJGPP version was the same as I built (22 June CVS)

If Your problems with mkdoc.exe reproducible?
