That is a known bug in GCC 2.7.2 which comes with DJGPP v2.0, it is 
explained in the DJGPP FAQ list (v2/faq202b.zip from the same place you 
get DJGPP), section 22.10.  The best for you is to upgrade to DJGPP v2.01 
(GCC 2.7.2.1) where that bug is fixed, but the above section of the FAQ 
also explains how to work around the bug in v2.0 without upgrading.
