Update. This just in:

When I run DJGPP and RHIDE (v1.4, by the way) in a DOS box, I have the
trouble I mentioned before. If I drop to the MS-DOS prompt first,
however (via the MS-DOS Prompt icon), I can compile my program one
time. That is, RHIDE reports "There were no errors" and the thing
seems to have worked properly. BUT at this point I lose my mouse
entirely AND if I try to recompile the whole machine freezes solid and
I have to reboot. 

As for MS-DOS mode, I'm not able to compile in it at all right now, as
I don't have CSDPMI. I tried it with CWSDPMI, which I happened to have
on my machine, but that didn't work.

Don't know if this helps, but I thought I should report it.
