Thanks for the refernce.

from that I could gather, I needed to set the following configuration in my
system.ini [386enh]:

PerVMFiles=255

I also upgraded FILES to 255 in my config.sys.
I then rebooted the machine. Unfortuantely, it did not completely solve the
problem. But it was the right direction!
I did more research.

I found that I had to change also my C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\config.nt to echo the
same parameters:
FILES=255
This made the real difference!

A ton of files started getting compiled... then it came to the following
sequence and quit:

</output>

I looked at the script "..gcc/fixinc/genfixes" ...and saw that it called for
AUTOGEN. I looked for AUTOGEN but only found source code.

I downloaded the source code for AUTOGEN.

./configure for autogen stopped dead, telling me I needed GUILE.

I downloaded source code for GUILE.

:/configure for GUILE ran successfully, but the make script quit when it saw
that it wasn't on a UNIX system, and therefore would never see a file named
"and-let*.scm" and would never be able to create links to shared libraries.

Grrrr....
Does this mean I failed the "make your own GCC 3.0.4" test?
