Subject: go32 error solved!

At the moment I feel extremly embarassed for taking up your time. The
problem I have been yelling about for a week now was caused by a virus
(Whisper: TaiPan for anyone interested). The virus infected all .exe
files smaller than 64kB (gas and sed for example) and caused some
strange errors (specially whan an infected stub was merged with a coff-
file using an infected coff2exe). I finally noticed the changed lengths
of the exe files and the string "Whisper presents TaiPan" in the code.

Thanks anyway for your help in this, a side-effect of this is that I have
learned a lot about gcc and djgpp.
