So the problems seems to be related to nested DJGPP program
invocation.

Please press Ctrl-BREAK instead of Ctrl-C and post here the entire
crash message that is printed as the result of that.

This is normal behavior: you need to use cpp.exe, not cpp.

The GCC specs are in another directory, so they don't overwrite the
djdev version.

But in any case, try to rename the files %DJDIR%/lib/gcc-lib/djgpp/2.95/specs
and %DJDIR%/lib/specs (one at a time) and see if the problem goes away 
with any of these files renamed.
