Until earlier today, I had been happily using the djgpp gcc compiler
for many months. Around midday, I made the mistake of updating
windows 98 by responding to the critical update notification message.
Now that I have the latest security package in place, gcc no longer
works. It runs for a several minutes then aborts. Here is what I get:

jrl E:\src\SIGPROC>gcc -dumpversion
2.952

jrl E:\src\SIGPROC>gcc -c anyfile.c
Abort!
Exiting due to signal SIGABRT

Interestingly, another machine has the same security upgrade, done around the
same time today, but gcc on it still functions. Both machines are running Win98 
second edition with all of the critical MS updates. The machine that works is a 
Pentium II 400; the one that does not work is a Pentium III 733.

On the bad machine:
jrl E:\compile\djgpp\bin>go32-v2
go32/v2 version 2.0 built Dec 24 1999 17:46:57
DPMI memory available: 94977 Kb
DPMI swap space available: 32603 Kb

On the working machine:
DPMI memory available: 22201 Kb
DPMI swap space available: 40095 Kb

Ideas for trouble-shooting?
