(I am running gcc 2.7.2.1 on Win95 with a Pentium 166 processor)
C:\fsf\bin>gcc --version
2.7.2.1

I think I have an unclean installation of djgpp. I installed from the
GNU MS-DOS Software CD so my installation directory is c:\fsf\bin
rather than c:\djgpp.  

When I attempted to run the installation from Texinfo 3.12 (the djgpp)
port, I followed this procedure.

Unzipped the file (with WinZip 7.0) to C:\
Cd c:\gnu\texinfo3.12

Since I presume there is a ready makefile, (although the README file
is ambiguous on what directory I should be in) I typed 'make' in that
directory.

"A required dll cygwin.dll was not found"

This tells me that when I deleted the cygnus ports on my machine I
must have left some variable set wrong.  Does anyone know how to make
this right without reinstalling djgpp and all the gnu utilities?

I tried running the config.bat file in the /gnu/texinfo3.12/djgpp
directory but all I got was

Configuring GNU Texinfo for DJGPP v2.x...
Updating configuration scripts...
File `configure.orig' created
Cannot open src file
No USERNAME and no USER found in the environment, using default values
Running the ./configure script...
Bad command or file name
./configure script exited abnormally!
