I'm confused here.  The programs in v2gnu are also compiled by DJGPP,
so which programs work and which don't?  Are you telling that programs
from v2gnu crash while programs that YOU compile work?

Also, please list the programs from v2gnu that you tried and that
crashed.  If there are *any* programs from v2 and v2gnu that *do*
work, please say which ones are they.

Then how do you explain that ``programs compiled by DJGPP continue to
work fine...''?
