Subject: Patch for go32.h of gcc 2.7.2.1

Here is a patch for the file
'go32.h' in the dircetory 'config/i386' of the gcc distribution.

The patch is against the file from gcc 2.7.2.1.

Description of the patch:
The patch allows the user of gcc on DJGPP to produce stabs debugging
information with the '-gstabs' commandline switch. This is very usefull
when debugging c++ programs because it is much bether than sdb debugging
information. The sdb debugging information is still the default setting.

And the next change handles a bug with emitting the right filename
in the generated assembler file. Currently the there is the dump_base_name
used, but this is not correct, because the gcc driver calls
cc1 or cc1plus with '-dumpbase fo.cc', even when compiling a file
'foo.cpp'. I have changed this to use the main_input_name, which
point to the correct filename.

This bug is related not only to DJGPP, but I cannot say something
about the other platforms, probably the same patch can be applied to
them.

Because the patch has to to only with the DJGPP port of gcc, it cannot
break anything on other platforms.
