Thanks, cool. I will put a little more effort in to this next time round.
If it is helpful, I don't mind working on this.  As I mentioned, we kind of
need to do it for our project anyways, but I don't want to trip over work
that you have already started.  But ... if I was to do some work on this in
the hopes of preparing a patch file, where should I start.  With the last
official release + djdev from CVS?  Are there any "must have" patches I
should apply before starting?

I have been keeping notes of what I've been doing so far here:
http://www.execulink.com/~coder/fb/bin/ in the file djgpp_building.txt.
Those binaries are probably only good for FreeBASIC temporarily since I have
learned of a few mistakes I've made since making them.  Also, they are not
correctly packaged: still learning on that.  In otherwords, I wouldn't use
those binaries as-is.
