The problem were that I more likely had libsocket installed (perhaps
lsck073b.zip) when built gcc-2.8.1 in October 1998. 

About rebuilding it. I think better would be to change to egcs-1.1.1.
There should be no big problems with C++ exceptions if I apply one small
patch to gcc/dwarf2out.c. C++ exceptions was main reason why I asked DJ to
put egcs-1.1.1 in v2gnu/beta instead of v2gnu.

More serious problem is that building egcs-1.1.1 from source archives I
have uploaded requires LFN support. Unfortunatelly fixing that
perhaps should require too much time...

Maybe we should still make a release of DJGPP port of egcs-1.1.1 (or wait
egcs-1.1.2 that should be out in some months, I hope)
