I do not know. I have never see that behavior (even on WIn10). gcc-6.1.0 DJGPP packages
were built under Windows Vista Business SP2 (on old Lenovo Thinkpad...)

What gcc version was used for bootstrapping? What happens if old version is used for
bootstrapping (try for example http://ap1.pp.fi/djgpp/gcc/4.4.7/v205/ )

It could also be caused by the same problem than we see under Win10. showing in a different way.
It seems that gcc versions beginning from 4.6 miscompiles code in some cases. How else one can explain
that I'm only seeing preprocessor failures under Win10 when stage2 and stage3 compiler is being 
used and
staga1 compiler built with gcc-4.4.7 works under Win10. Of course it could also be related with 
binutils.
At least I got the failures with binutils-2.20 and gcc-4.6.4, so large relation count support is 
not the source of
problem.
