Script works fine, and is in fact suggested by the DJGPP documentation. 
However, a much easier way to handle stderr redirection is built into
the DJGPP distribution; it's called 'redir'.  Look it up in the FAQ; the
syntax is as follows:

redir -o err.log -eo gcc [...]

The '-o err.log' tells redir to redirect standard output to the file
'err.log', and '-eo' tells it to redirect standard error to the same
place.  The rest of the command line gets executed.  Type 'redir'
without arguments for additional options.
