Yes, I am using the ones from /beta/v2gnu. Neitherless I have downloaded them
again to be able to compile with debug support.

Increasing the stack has not solved the difficulty.

I have downloaded it and installed. BTW, it would be nice if you could
upload them to /beta/v2gnu so the port becomes available for every one.
Also we would have a greater audience for testing it by using. The last gdb
port on /beta/v2gnu is gdb53b and that was the one I was using. But all this
is only a suggestion.

The reason for the failure was my MikTex installation. The installation includes
a texinfo binary probably compiled with MS Visual C++. The path to MikTex was
before the path to djgpp. During the compilation stage the info docs are
generated, but instaed of using the djgpp port of texinfo the miktex binary was
used. As soon as I modified the path environment variable in such a way that
the makefile started using the djgpp port of texinfo all the trouble disappeared.
The source of the difficulty was the use of not djgpp binaries by the makefile.
