Some common problems possible with DJGPP port of gcc-2.8.1. Look DJGPP FAQ for
info about other problems.

RHIDE-1.4

   Q) When trying to link C++ program RHIDE-1.4 returns error message
      ld.exe: cannot open -lstdcx: No such file or directory (ENOENT)

   A) The name of C++ library has changed since port of gcc-2.7.2.1.
      The fix for this problem is add line

      RHIDE_TYPED_LIBS_DJGPP.cc=stdcxx

      to %DJDIR/share/rhide/rhide.env. Or add 2 lines

      [rhide]
      RHIDE_TYPED_LIBS_DJGPP.cc=stdcxx

      to Your DJGPP.ENV. An example of DJGPP.ENV with this fix is in
      directory gnu/gcc-2.81 (archive gcc281b.zip)
