That means that gcc is looking for "as.exe", which is the assembler it
needs to run to generate a .o object file, but it can't find it.  This and
your previous message suggest that your DJGPP environment variable is set
incorrectly.  If you fixed the problem with include files by setting
C_INCLUDE_PATH from the DOS prompt, you didn't fix the real problem.  To
solve all such problems, you need to set DJGPP variable to point to the
file called DJGPP.ENV in your main DJGPP installation directory, like this:

	set DJGPP=c:/djgpp/djgpp.env

The above statement should be in your AUTOEXEC.BAT; if you put DJGPP in a 
directory other than c:/djgpp, change the setting accordingly.  And make 
sure that directory indeed includes a file named `djgpp.env'.

If all of the above doesn't help, post the contents of your environment 
(from the DOS prompt type "set > env.lst" and post the file `env.lst').
