It seems that post-2.7 gperf snapshot is required. Nobody has 
ported it to DJGPP yet, but I somehow managed to compile it,
then it worked. Also bison was required. After I installed
bison, everything went successfully until making distribution
zips. I don't have InfoZip's zip, so I just removed my old 
EGCS-1.1.2 compiler and copied files from installation directory 
to my DJGPP tree.

But after this my new compiler refuses to compile anything -
it died with error "Load error: no DOS memory" or 
cpp.exe: installation problem, cannot exec `c:/djgpp/bin/cpp.exe':
Argument list
 too long (E2BIG)
I added "-v" switch, redirected output to file and it is 
about 57 KB ! Is it OK to send such size file here?
When looking to that file I noticed interesting thing:

All OK, right? But after this it says:

8-0 And it repeats all over again, and "-D..." list is 
going longer and longer, and finally it exits
with error message. What can cause this infinite
recursion/loop? Why only cpp is called all the time?

Thanks for your help,
