Get the v2.0 beta release (or wait for the public release, shouldn't be
too far away). You get Gcc 2.7.2.

It runs under these, but cannot generate native OS2 or Win95 programs.

SimTel has ports of many GNU development tools in the same directory
where DJGPP is.

If you don't use the C++ classes library (which is under GNU Library GPL),
basically you can do whatever you like with DJGPP programs. For details,
see the DJGPP FAQ list (faq102.zip from the SimTel mirrors, in the
SimTel/vendors/djgpp directory), Chapter 19.
