Can anyone help or shed some light on to my problem. I have been using
GNUPLOT compiled under V1.09 for some time now with no problems.

On upgrading to DJGPP V2.0 and recompiling GNUPLOT I find a problem when
I spawn a shell. From within GNUPLOT I would normally spawn a shell and
run ghostscript (V3.1.2 Watcom DOS4/GW compiled version). If I do that
with the V2.0 compiled Gnuplot my machine hangs/crashes. 

I assume that there is a conflict between the DPMI of gnuplot and that
of DOS4/GW. I am using the default CWSDMPI driver, which is loaded at
gnuplot run time.

Can anyone offer advice?
Thanks
