There is no specs file on my stock djgpp system, and this is because the
gcc2721b.zip archive does *not* contain a specs file---the only files in
that archive (sans info and manifest files) are these:

  1065472  10-19-96 10:32   bin/cc1.exe
   119808  10-19-96 10:28   bin/cpp.exe
   106496  10-19-96 10:28   bin/gcc.exe
    59904  10-19-96 10:26   bin/gxx.exe
    46778  09-02-96 14:48   lib/libgcc.a

All post-2.7.2.1 gcc binary distros appear to contain a specs file (and
have a completely reorganized directory structure too), so was the djgpp
gcc2.7.2.1 binary distro then `broken'?  Or is this old gcc incompatible
with djgpp 2.03?

I'm perfectly willing to upgrade my gcc, but I want to understand this
matter, too.
