Subject: djgcc106_and_pagetest.c

Hi,
Sorry if this is an old issue, but I didn't follow this list for
some time (too much mail, really! what about a newsgroup?). Due
to lack of disk space, I only recently installed djgpp1.06. All
works fine, but I can't compile pagetest.c (I did not have such
problems with djgcc 1.05). The problem seems not to be with my
environment-settings, as compiling other sources does work (e.g. 
compress.c or some quite big programs I wrote before).
When I try to compile pagetest with
        `gcc -v pagetest.c'
I get the following:
> Reading specs from f:/gcc2/lib/specs

Just for completenes I include my `setgcc2.bat' (remark: env-var %temp points to the
ramdisk `i:')

And now something really funny: if I compile pagetest.c from within demacs,
the problem does not occur (I'm using himem.sys, so demacs and gcc both
are running as vcpi-clients)

Likewise, the problem is gone if I rename pagetest.c to pagetest.cc, so it
must be really something cc1.exe - specific.

Any help appreciated!
