	Okay, I got the LIBGRX 2.0 beta (alpha?) stuff (shoulda read the 
FAQ, eh?)...  The makefile runs through everything just fine with the 
GNUish MAKE (running it from the src/ directory), but alas, dies when 
trying to run AR.  Specifically, AR tells me "invalid operation" after 
dumping out the names of all the input files.

	Now, I dunno about you, but this "invalid operation" message 
doesn't mean much to me...  I haven't had any experience compiling 
libraries, so all of this is a bit foreign.

	At any rate, I looked at the info on AR in the info program, and 
the command-line parameters look valid...  I would almost venture to 
guess that the command-line is too long, but all the input files are 
output by AR (thanks to the "v" switch).

	Anyway, to the point - if anybody has compiled LIBGRX 2.0 for 
DJGPP 2.0 (I know there's somebody) please mail me...  This is my first 
library compilation and I don't completely understand why AR is dying on me.

	Thanks!
