Thanks for your replay, I'll try to give you the missing information:

I am running in a dos window under win95. I have also tried running through
rhide but I got the same results.

The output og go32-v2 is:

DPMI memory available: 22571 Kb
DPMI swap space available: 7197 Kb

The complete command line was :

C:\djgpp\work>gcc -o hello -v hello.c

which is a one liner (printf("Hello World"); - ofcourse)

and gcc hangs. I get the same result if I just call gcc with no arguments at
all.
