To whom it may concern,
As of the 21st, binutils uses long section names with DJGPP. This may be why Andris 
was having problems with C++ exceptions, if it happened on or after the 21st. This 
means some changes need to be made to djgpp.djl because we can no longer count on 
section names being truncated to 8 characters. Since we're using djgpp.djl and not 
the linker scripts included in Binutils, the following changes should be made to 
djgpp.djl:
