  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
See?  Your stack is blown, probably by some code that overwrote the stack 
frame.  Popular reasons for this include: writing beyond the end of an 
array, or passing incorrect arguments to functions (like passing an int 
to a function that expects a double).

See section 12.2 of the DJGPP FAQ list (v2/faq211b.zip from the same 
place you get DJGPP), for more explanations about these problems.  That 
section also explains how to begin debugging your problem using the info 
printed when the program crashed.
