I'm going to use a different name so it's impossible gcc will take 
incompatible one from djdev203.zip unless somebody will mess with 
specs. I'm sure having 2 incompatible files with the same name is 
going to cause more problems rather than temporary changing the 
name (up to time when we'll be able to require users to install
djdev204.zip or above).

What I suggesting is to temporary use linker script with a slightly 
different name before djdev204.zip will be released
