Tried with my procedure library (more than 100 C++ source files, about
35000 lines, total build time about 3.5 minutes). There were no visible 
difference (less than 2%) in performance between normal version and one 
using cpplib.

Tried to compile djlsr202 and immediatelly get serious problem:
     Option -MD is broken for cc1.exe but works with cc1plus.exe.
(the Idea was to see whether I can build it under Wincrap95 without
crashing due to M$ DPMI server leaks). So no success yet.

So perhaps I should drop this way after sending one more bug report
